Heated Vest

I,m almost 61 yrs old and worked out side my whole life in the cold of Nebraska-Wyoming and Alaska.Last year we went for a 4 th of July ride and it rained and 40 degrees coming back from Fairbanks. I was very cold and decided if I lived I would try a electric vest. I just put the wiring on bike and went for a ride. WOW didn't know what I was missing. If your on the fence jump over good money well spent.I went with the leader in heated clothing and it starts with a G.

Heated vest

Hope you got the adjustable thermostat . It is ideal when the cold is not so cold. Gerbing makes the heated vests and clothing for HD.

I have the Tourmaster heated jacket liner. It has full sleeves (heated too) and I find it more versatile than a vest. I can use it as a plain unheated liner or plug it in for heat. It also has built in wiring for heated gloves if you go that route. Pretty cheap too.

But back to the OP - heated gear is wonderful stuff.
