I got a pair of First Gear heated gloves, they work great. What I was wondering is if an America has enough amps the carry a heated vest as well as the gloves.
Yes, I would recommend the heated jacket liner. This will eliminate the need for the jackets normal liner. Additionally I find it important to keep the arms warm as well. This has a total effect on the upper torso. From the finger tips to the waist line.
I left Wednesday morning at 6:00 am, a good hour before sunrise, 30 degrees. Road through western North Carolina, down through the tip of Georgia and into South Carolina. Three hours before making my first stop. The only issue I had were with my legs, I did not realize how cold they were. When I got off the bike I almost fell down as I had no feeling there. I'll take a look at some heated insole or pants if I plan another adventure like that one. Wind chill must have been -10. The best part, hands and upper torso, nice and warm.
