Hand guards

National Cycle Deflectors

I used the national cycle deflectors on my rocket. The holes have to be enlarged slightly for the mirror stems.I also added a slightly longer bracket for more clearance. (optional)
 
My favorite everyday riding gloves are made of deer skin..very soft and warm, they are not hot in the summer. Cow leather sucks...hard and cold
You can find them sometimes at Home Depot or Lowes around $20.

Here in North Carolina...it does get cold here, so I have a full set of heated clothes, socks and gloves. No special wiring needed...Mine just plugs into the same wire as my battery tender.

I love going to the mountians in the winter to ride...The Dragon....Skyway....Parkway. Just have to watch the weather and make sure no snow...or rain...Winter riding there is just for pure pleasure...no hot rodding or speeding. I have been up there for 3 days riding and not seen one M/C...

Dang........I am going to start to watch the weather up there...I feel the need to Ride there...
 
Pony up and get a pair of warm gauntlet gloves.. You should be more concerned about getting a warm sleeping bag and a decent tent.Also don't expect to eat a hot meal you'll be hard pressed to find any decent food in Yellowstone. Pig out in Jaskson Hole and take snacks into the park to tie you over. I spent two nights in Yellowstone around August 8th it went from 80* during the day to 32* at night. Early mornings will be the coolest for riding, it warms up after that.

heated grip only warm the inside of your hands your finger tips still get very cold in a hurry
I removed the heated grips and use now a euro sleeve on each grips no more cold airflow on my regular gloves much simpler and better

I may be a cheap bastard, but I picked up a pair of hand guards that look similar to the ones in the pic Tripps posted from Walmart for ~$35 on clearance...they keep the wind off my hands but kinda freak me out a little. They were actually marketed for ATV's
