Having used many different brands of heated grips over many years, I always thought they were the answer. However, I saw the light a couple of years ago and got myself some Gerbings G-12 heated gloves. Expensive, but I would never choose heated grips again!

Much quicker warm-up as the heat doesn't have to fight its way through grip rubber and the glove material to get to your hands. Being more efficient, they are more contolable and use less power. Biggest bonus for me is I can use them on different bikes, and... I even wear them in the winter in my old rag-top series Land Rover with its non-existent heater!

BTW - The G-12 is soft enough and small enough round the cuff to get underneath all of my textile jackets, they won't go under the leathers though. The plugs and wires aren't really an issue when you get used to it and have worked out the best way to route everything
