I use a combination of hand guards, heated grips and decent winter gloves and it works sort of ok but at the end of my commute in the cold weather my hands are quite cold.Comment

Originally posted by ContractorOnAMotorbike View Posthaha... totally agree mate. I use my Honda Blackbird most of the time and I also own a Bandit as a winter hack. Only problem as you say is that the Bandit is absolutely awful in the winter or even spring for that matter. The Blackbird glides all the cold air over and around me while on the Bandit I feel like a sail of a boat catching all the freezing cold air if that makes sense.Comment
