fastfredyb Posted December 1, 2015 Share Posted December 1, 2015 My hands just hurt!!! I ride in about 35 degree weather for about 45 minutes and my hands just hurt. I wear glove liners and gloves I bought from cycle gear but that doesn't help much. What gloves do you recommend? I'm warm everywhere else except my hands!!

andistyr Posted December 1, 2015 Share Posted December 1, 2015 Yesterday I drove into work with the temperature at 35F. My hands were cold when I got to work. Last night my hand guards came in and I installed them. Today I drove into work with it around 33-35F and by the time I got into work only the finger tips were starting to get cold. So that was a big help. I do have some nice heated gloves I will use when it gets colder. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pineappleunderthesea Posted December 1, 2015 Share Posted December 1, 2015 I have a few pairs of winter riding gloves, and none of them are good down to the mid 30s unless you have hand guards, and then that helps somewhat. I've started taking a look at rechargeable heated gloves (they come with their own little battery, good for several hours, so something like the Fly racing ingnitor gloves). Haven't pulled the trigger yet. I don't want to mess with wires and such, so a glove with its own battery is a better option for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Ralph Posted December 1, 2015 Share Posted December 1, 2015 I ware those claw gloves were two fingers sit together they do make a difference, you cant beat heated stuff and hand guards but claw gloves and elephants ears work well though they don't look good.

motocr Posted December 1, 2015 Share Posted December 1, 2015 Been meaning to create a review thread on my hand gaurd I road in 27 degree weather for 3 hrs the other week and couldn't hear it linger than 30 minutes at a time on my fingers. I bought barkbusters Storm hand gaurd universal kit and they make a huge difference I road back and only stopped for Gass and warm my hands up a bit once glove liners warm gloves and hand gaurd and your good to go if it's still cold get some heat factory hest packs and put them in the gloves with glove liners that are made for them and you won't have an issue with your hands being cold for up to 2 hrs then you may need to stop and warm them up.

Premium Member motomeek Posted December 1, 2015 Premium Member Share Posted December 1, 2015 I'm just agreeing with what many have already said. I've tried a few pairs of winter gloves while riding in the 30s for 45-60 minutes. I think riding with gloves alone won't suffice. Hand guards or heated grips/gloves will most likely be your best bet. Instagram: @meekmade | You don't need to flat foot a bike to ride it.

Global Moderator jeffkisthename Posted December 2, 2015 Global Moderator Share Posted December 2, 2015 Shoot, I'm thinking about those muffs that go over your levers, but you need some kind of hand/lever guard to keep them from collapsing at 70+MPH I assume.

Guest Ralph Posted December 2, 2015 Share Posted December 2, 2015 I have a pair of Elephants ears / muffs, they work and don't collapse but are a bit strange to use at first, they grip your wrist and if you remove your hand from the bars it can be awkward to get it back on the move but they keep your hands warm.

fastfredyb Posted December 2, 2015 Author Share Posted December 2, 2015 Thanks guys, I never thought of rechargeable gloves. I agree with a lot of you that gloves alone might not do the trick . I have elephant ears, . I'm not too handy sometimes and would hate to mess up my bike somehow by adding heated grips. But I hope these work.

delbee1 Posted December 2, 2015 Share Posted December 2, 2015 I've just ordered 2 sets or Gerbing heated gloves. I wanna see both before I decide which ones I want and send the other ones back. One set is their XRS short ones and the others are XR Hybrid. They both have a life time guarantee on the heating elements. They can both be wired to the bike or the XR Hybrids have pockets to fit their battery packs. I really did like the look of the Keis X800i's but I went to a shop to see them and the guy said that they had a lot back with problems. The rest of the Keis stuff is good though so I ordered some of their heated soles lol 8-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Premium Member hobbs Posted December 3, 2015 Premium Member Share Posted December 3, 2015 I got a pair of mega cheap "firstgear" insulated gloves last year thinking I'd be happy if they lasted a couple months. They're actually holding up well, but they're not that great below the 40s. I usually end up shoving my hands in the motor area whenever I'm at a stop, and it takes me a good half hour before I can sign my name or write after I get to work. I need to be less frugal and buy something decent. Everything went braap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Viva la Arizona! I was torn between those and the Patrol gloves, but I liked the Patrol's flexibility a bit better. The armor they used in the Raidens is beefy to be sure, but kinda made it difficult to manipulate the controls.

Premium Member wickedtwister Posted December 6, 2015 Premium Member Share Posted December 6, 2015 I wear Held gloves year round. I have 2 sets one for summer (air stream), 1 for winter/rain (Rain cloud) They are only insulated on the top side of the hand but Ive ridden in temps down to 17 deg with them with warm hands. I have not been on long ride however. I would safely say they are good for extended riding at 40+ deg. Anything colder than that i would get the gloves that are insulated on both sides or heated grips. Check out video reviews on revzilla as Anthony does a good job of explaining the details of all their gloves. Sizing is consistent between summer and winter gloves as well. I also get Held gloves sent to me from family in Germany where they are about 35-40% cheaper. 130 euro for the Rain cloud so i saved about 80 bucks.

I got some reflective vinyl remnants from a buddy of mine that does vehicle wraps, trying to think of a good scheme to put some strips on my helmet since it matches the gunmetal color almost exactly!

Be careful you don't sweat too much, especially if you get a heated vest/jacket. Sweat is the second biggest enemy during cold weather. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
