Does anyone make heated grips for the thrux or should I just ride with one hand on a side cover when wimping out? And can I fit my clip on's to my snowblower to ease the pain of waiting for spring?

Why not get the Gerbing gloves and jacket liner? Best things I've purchased for riding, bikes aside that is.

Check Coppers photo album for pics of the Aerostich wrap-around grip warmers.

Dirty worm, I have a pair of heated grip wraps on my Bonnie, $45 +shipping from Aerostitch. They come with a harness and plug to be hard wired to the battery, then the wrap part plugs in and wraps around the grips. They come off in about 30 seconds when you don't need them. I am very happy with them, only complaint is that they don't do anything for the thumb, but I just tuck it up by my fingers and they are fine...Very warm, I ride in 40-50deg weather here with them and stay comfy.

Aerostitch grips

Lots cheaper than the gloves or heated grips. I have pics of them on the bike in my album, links in my signature below.

Many thanks for the info folks. I will look into my options but have one ?. Are the heated gloves mentioned bulky or just a bit more padded than standard armored gloves. Thanks again.
