Am I nesh??????

[bogey]

Use the Scoot everyday for work as I`m sure many others do, the last few days have been really cold and me finger ends are suffering. Currently using Alpinestar lined glove not the winter type with thermal glove liners and they don`t cut it, so any tips on gloves?? Also, cant believe i`m asking this, but anyone tried heated grips???

Sorry, I don't know what "nesh" means, but I do know that you have to spend a lot of money on gloves if you want to keep the weather out, and even then it's only a matter of how long the gloves delay the cold/wet getting in.

Some people do invest in handlebar muffs if they have a particularly cold ride.

Do you have standard grips at the moment or Sundance? Your hands do tend to get very cold with Sundance.

'nesh' (adj) Used to describe someone who doesn't like the cold, avoids hardship, likes comfort etc. Often followed by 'southern Jessie'.

Nice quote, yeah I am nesh then.

Nesh, LOL, not heard that one for years ;D

Use a proper Belstaff winter glove myself, most of the year in fact, never really suffer from the cold.

No good in the rain or snow though, not waterproof!

Fitted heated grips to my GT last year and they're awesome!
I like to be warm, dry and at full concentration when I ride (being cold has the same effect as being drunk, concentration-wise) so heated grips were a must.
I got Oxford ones with variable temperature control and they were reasonably easy to fit.
Everyone has a look and a feel (of the grips!), and seem suitably impressed.
As for gloves, I've got these www.getgeared.co.uk/acatalog/HELD_2570_Freezer_Winter_Motorcycle_Glove.html
Very good bit of kit!
