Someone said you have to have heated grips. Bullshit.Gloves have come a long way in recent years and can be warm all day if you buy decent ones (£120+). If you ride every day like I do mostly, it doesn't take long for heated grips to break down anyhow.
A kidney belt, which can just be simply a wooly scarf wrapped around your midriff is a sound idea.
Never had a set of heated grips fail on me, so maybe it's just you talking your usual bullshit?
More people are born because of alcohol than will ever die from it.
