I use the velcro'd, Oxford "Hot hands" on my 998, so I can easily take them off for summer, and I think they are the one thing thet help me to keep riding all year round. I use the same leathers all year round (euuwww, must wash them next year too) and just slip a thicker t-shirt on underneath if tis below 5 degrees outside.
Heated waistcoats! PAH! Whatever next, hot-pants
