| I fitted some Bagster muffs to mine but modified them to fit better than suggested. Muffs work well but are awkward.

| Givi Universal ones; I hate them but they are really very good. I've found the trick is to have them loosely connected so they flap around when I haven't got my hands in them.
Too tight and I can't reach the switches and they press on the brake-levers at speed so illuminating the brake-lights. |

| Embarrassing enough to be ridin a scooter over here. These "muffs" would give someone a good reason to pull me over and slap me silly. I wouldnt fight back cause id deserve it. |

| I'm not and never have been a fan of handlebar muffs, I binned the pair I had when I recently moved house. I wear a pair of HG three finger neoprene over mitts over my three finger HG Pathan winter gloves, they increase the warmth and waterproofing of the very good Pathan gloves, and I can operate the controls as easily as you can in heavily gloved hands. I can't say I'm impressed with the big furry monstrosities pictured above, they don't look as if they've had any use in bad weather, and a long ride in heavy rain would have water running down the riders arms soaking the fluffy lining. |

| My warmest overall are a pair of oft repaired old snowmobile mitt style gloves, complete with nose wipers on the inner cuff. They were on sale at the time and knowing what I know now should have bought all they had. |
