Seriously though.

Two milk bottles, 8 minni zip ties (or 4 of a resonable length), and your laughing

They seem to support themselves well.

Warm hands and an Over all Win!

I did that last year but they pissed me off more than muffs so I went back to muffs.

[skatefreak]

Fair play....
But alas I'm to cheap to think about muffs lol...

If they work properly fairplay to you. Get some heated grips.

[Feasty]

I would do this but I'm a bit concerned what might happen to them at higher speeds!?

To be honest,
with the bottom of the bottle wedged in between the grip/end weight the speed dosnt seem to cause them to deform atall.

They certainly do the job but stand out for all the wrong reasons, i shall put a little time into revising and maybe even some for the old feet as they get a little chilled to!

It's not a wise move to use milk bottles as hand guards on a hi-performance motorcycle.

1) They could cause the the bars to 'turn' after a week or so.

2) They do stop Tank Slappers but then you get terrible 'Milk Shakes'.
