Who else is Ready for warm weather?

[Mr. Paul]

We are all learning together Forbes. BTW Stig is Da Man when it comes to cold weather riding.

[Stig / Major Tom]

Does anyone use heated gloves? What about the ones with the lithium batteries?

Post above regarding the Gerbing heated gloves that work off two lithium batteries in each wrist sleeve.
Recharge them at night....turn them on 10mins before rolling the scoot out....set at middle heat setting. Have ridden down to low 20's (F.) in comfort - with heavy leather gauntlets as over-gloves. Teens are tolerable if kept under an 90 mins....4 degrees (F.) ride to work one day for 1/2 hour.
I love to ride year around if the Ohio roads are clear of most ice and snow - but nothing   worked to keep my hands warm for more than 25 mins on those cold days until I tried the Gerbing glove liners. I ride without a screen on my LIKE200i, and only a short sport screen on my Burgman.
These Gerbings make winter riding easier - it was always my hands that limited my time on the scoot in the winter.

That is some pretty white sand at your beach, Stig.

We are having some days with high temps in the 50s, so I finally get to ride! My scooter is so happy now, and so am I. Hard to keep that smile off my face when I'm on the road. 😀

[Stig / Major Tom]

Yep, gotta watch for the sand in the bends.....we have run-off areas here, like on F1 tracks.
I'm laying on my back as I took this picture - you shoulda seen the High Side I did! Spectacular!

Next best thing for warm hands is those brush guards for the brake/clutch levers dirt bikes have to keep the wind deflected off of your hands.

[Mr. Paul]

Thats a great idea 2wheel! Had I known that earlier, I would have probably gotten a smaller windscreen and used the brush guards along with grip warmers.

[Forbes1964]

Thought the cold was over. Got down to 40 this morning. Supposed to be in the upper thirties tomorrow morning. Too cold for me to ride. GRRRRR

[Forbes1964]

Ok. The Easter snap has come and gone. Hopefully no more sub 50degree days. By next winter I'll have some heated glove liners and/or some wind deflectors to protect my hands. But until then, only the rain can stop me.

The only thing that's gonna keep me off my scoot for the morning commute is 30F, a heavy downpour or it just won't start . . DOH!

[Mr. Paul]

Same here Wayne, but I will ride down to 17 degrees. Love the scooter apron.
