I just fitted Daytona heated grips to the 'Blade, amazingly they went on without a hitch and worked when I tested them. Got given them so can't really go wrong and they should be rather pleasant on long trips in this numbing cold. Anyone else got any?

Hi

Got some in the garage to fit but haven't done so yet. 27 miles to work in winter on an unfaired bike does make your hands get a bit cold.

All the best

Keith

Well no matter what combinations of gloves I try, including thermal inners in winter gloves my hands still go painfully numb on long rides in cold weather (I remember the pain of the NEC journey home lastyear). So whatever can keep me on the bike is surely good, not being a pansy.

Hi

Cars are better in cold weather, far better in snow.

Never got on with inner gloves. They seem to just make your gloves tighter which restricts blood circulation and that makes your hands even colder.

All the best
