Oversized gloves.

An old biker, long since departed, told me when I first started riding, when heated grips were confined to Pan Europeans and some BMW's.... Anyway, his tip was to get a pair of gloves that are too big, so there is at least 1/2 to 3/4 of an inch between the end of the glove and the finger, when closed around the grips. It actually works.

But, having gloves that slip around a bit is one of the worst feelings ever.... you can get used to it, eventually.
