I've had both and was not impressed with heated grips, it's cleaner but not the best situation.
Here's what I have and my recommendation. Gerbings brand product's are my choice from here The warming store
Plan to spend around 350-400 dollars. It's a one time investment and you will wonder why you didn't do it sooner. Get a jacket liner, this will replace your current liner in your favorite jacket. Get a set of gloves, get a two position wireless controller.

Here's how it works. The gloves plug into each sleeve of the jacket. You have one wire coming from the bottom right side of the jacket that plugs into the battery quick connect. The wireless controller pairs with the packet and gloves. I have the controller mounted to the right handlebar. No wires, it's a bit larger than a Zippo lighter and controls the jacket and gloves independently
I love this setup, 30 degrees no problem. Next up I have a set of heated over pants on my wish list. Just gotta come off the cash.
We all spend thousands of dollars to be motorcyclists, what's a few hundred more for good gear

Another plus to this set up, you can use it on any bike. Simply have a battery quick connect on all your bikes, move the controller to the bike and off you go.




I agree with everything Mike said here. However, if you want a slightly less expensive setup with less wiring, consider just a heated vest and then the gloves. The vest doesn't draw as much as the liner, eliminating the need for the controller. I have the vest and T-5 gloves and I am toasty with that setup without windshield.


Always remember to be yourself. Unless you suck. Then pretend to be someone else.
