Not sure on the gloves. If you are not running a heated vest/jacket liner as well than you might want to look at the Harley gloves which are battery operated. I have read some good things about them, but haven't tried them.

I have a pair of Widder's that are great! I've only tested them down to 30 degrees with no faring to block the wind.

I also have to add that I've been told that my Widder's are bulky compared to Gerbing, however, I wouldn't know it. That don't cause a problem for me......... At 60 degrees I have to shed them for my regular gloves because they're so well insulated.

I could have used heated gloves this weekend.
Where is a good place to get them?

I also have the Widder brand gloves that I bought last winter and am very pleased with them. I purchased mine from a place called New England Motorcycle in Madison, Virginia:

http://www.motoemporium.com

The gloves (Code JM) were $81.55
The battery cord (Code K) was $12.68
The glove harness (Code P) was $16.31

There are different setups if you are using an electric vest. You can read and see pictures of what this is all about and compare MSRP prices on the Widder web site:

http://www.widder.com

I did not find the gloves too bulky. There is also an on/off switch on the battery cord if things warm up later in the day. My bike is garaged so before I go out on really cold days, I lay my jacket across the saddle with the harness pinned in the liner, plug in the gloves and plug in the battery connection and let the gloves get toasty warm for about five minutes before I start out. My fingers are very happy with this arrangement.

I leave for work @ 0300. Even here in NC in Winter, it's chilly. It's often below 30deg. I have a pair of Frank Thomas cold weather gloves, but at these temps, my fingertips get numb. I bought a pair of silk liners, but they really didn't help. I might be interested in those battery powered gloves. Is there anywhere else but a Harley dealer to get them????
