Best purchase I've ever made gear wise.

[Skudd]

I keep looking at them. Just wondering on how much room there is inside them for knuckle guards and the like. I want them for my Varadero 1000.

I guess it would be down to how they are fitted to the bars.

Just remove the hand guards. Not needed with muffs.

I rode with no gloves through a snow storm with a foot of snow on the floor. Still toasty.

The bigger (non neoprene) ones would do ok over handguards.

However, the cheap ones also don't suffer from their primary serious flaw of hitting the levers if you have hand guards, so consider those too.

They won't be as cosy as the big tuccano's, but aren't too bad, especially when used with heated grips too.

[Whosthedaddy]

Just need to refit mine in the next few days, makes commuting in winter a little more bearable. Must see about getting some heated grips too.

Does anyone actually bother with the fiddly cable tie and plastic donut thing around the grip to stop the muffs from coming off?

I just reattach them occasionally.
But I did find they would sometimes pull out the (rubber mounted) bar end on the GSXR too.

[Doovy]

Fair enough. I think I've lost the plastic clips it came with now.. will probably still use them though when it gets colder.

I thought mine came with just cable ties?

I did consider using them a few times when it was getting daily use and wasn't being leant out to others.

[Rogerborg]

[G]

Oh yea - I think the discs were for smaller bar ends?

GSXR has chunky ones, so didn't need them.

[pinkyfloyd]

Got them fitted and they do take a little getting used to with the indicators being on the outside of the glove thing but they can be used ok.

Initial thoughts. At 50mph in the wind on the way home from the shop I might as well have left my gloves at home. No wind, no cold. Nothing was felt through the muffs. Well worth fitting even though I get chey comments from my mates.

I take it they're not just Neoprene, what else is there? A foil layer?
