Getting chilly here now, I put a jumper on this morning :o The bike feels like it's gained an extra 5 hp though, with the thicker air :yup:

I've never seen the need myself, but some of the quad boys, who just love the snow, say that you need heated grips plus bar muffs. One without the other is no use, but with both you can wear thinner gloves so you can work winches, ploughs, shackles etc. without taking your gloves off, but still keep your hands toasty and dry your gloves out at the same time. It makes sense, but how ugly do you want your bike to look?
