Heated gloves sounds like the ticket! Thanks for all the responses guys. My hands are really the only thing that gets cold. My face too, but a little neoprene fixes that up.
Even with glove liners, the cold just permeates. Air deflectors over the levers (like on dirt bikes) can help....yet heated gloves is the answer.
+1 I spent a small fortune looking for the ever elusive perfect insulated glove. ANd you know what, it doesn't exist. Like he said, the cold eventually finds you now matter what you have on, unless it's heated.
I wear a nice heavy leather jacket with liner, chaps and some LL Bean Buckskin Chopper mittens. Nothing is as warm as mittens when it comes to cold weather. I also wear a baclava when its below 40 to keep the neck and head toasty under my FF helmet. What alot of people don't realize is your hands only start to get cold when your inner core temperature starts dropping and our bodies steal blood flow from extremeties.
When adding that heated gear, be very aware of how much electricity draw you are installing. I would have the heated pants too, but the Sporty electrical system will not produce enough power. Would have a dead battery in a very short time. Just the heated gloves and jacket is good for me, and that includes a 80 mp interstate for 65 miles each way. Temps were -1 to 3 degrees.
