View Full Version : Anyone seen these lately? flskevin 3rd December 2005, 04:19 Years ago, I had a winter hand protectors. It was a leather cover w/insulated padding that snapped over the hand controls. You would put your hands inside the covers to access the throttle/clutch and were very warm. Has anyone else ever seen these? rottenralph 3rd December 2005, 04:34 Try ebay.

They attach to the mirror stems. Keep Warm Bob Moker 4th December 2005, 07:44 heh... So I emailed that guy from dabronco's post. he looks to be a pretty cool guy, but he says: You would order by email, payment by International money order only. Unfortunately, I've been scammed out of one jacket already, and I can't take any chances with Paypal or anything else. lol i sent him a reply, saying basically that he's offering me no recourse should anything go wrong. heck, he's gotta protect his arse just like i gotta protect mine. we'll see what he say's for a reply.... djs 5th December 2005, 18:13 http://atvlogic.com/images/storage/ATVM.JPG ATVM-B & MO ATV HAND PROTECTORS (Mitts) A pair of these mitts will protect your hands from wind, weather, brush and rocks.

ATVM-B: Black ATVM-MO: Mossy Oak New Break-Up http://atvlogic.com/images/storage/popatvm.html just put these on my and my wifes bike. They fit and work well. Temps in the low/mid 40's and i was wearing my summer perforated leather gloves. My hands were not cold at all. If needed those hand warms pack heaters for skiing could be added to give some heat. I got the black ones. No pics yet, but will try to get pics soon. Only thing is you must be comfirtable with operating your controls and not seeing your hands. I got mine from Pep Boys for $16. they are also available online at places. merc 5th December 2005, 18:29 djs those are pretty cool.
