Heated grips are the only way. Oxfords cost me $116 from Race Replica and they're easy to install. No superwarm flashy gloves were helping me.

Don't be fuggin rodiculous Greg, he muzst have read it somewhere...

Interestingly enough I have some thickish gloves that are [probably more spring than winter gloves and some thinner Dririder gloves and seems the thinner ones let in less cold than the thicker ones, perhaps quality of the leather is the determining factor?

I have the gloves and jacket liner. Works well. Up at my place, its usually minus 1 or 2 in the mornings. The jacket liner is AWESOME and the gloves are pretty good too. The gloves would probably keep your hands warm in normal cold weather, but where I live, they just stop my fingers getting cold.
I want fast bikes, cars and women!
But can only afford one at a time!
