I recently got the HD heated jacket liner and pants and have enjoyed riding longer this season in Iowa. I was looking to add some heated gloves, but are unsure of the right pair. I know HD has a glove made by Gerbings but Gerbings also has the T5, and G3 I have looked at that look like great gloves. Any opinions on preferences?

I have HD heated gloves and the wife has Gerbings, they are the same gloves. The wife loves hers, but I never use mine anymore since I have heated grips on my limited. I've installed two sets of heat demons on buddies bikes and they swear by their heated grips also. Just a thought....

I'm more of a wimp. I love the Heat Demons also. The grips and decent gloves are good to the low 40. But if the gloves are too thick you begin losing some of the impact of the grips. So much below low 40s the heated gloves become a more comfortable option for me. I use the G3 Gerbing gloves and have found them plenty flexible and comfortable. Haven't had the opportunity to compare against their newer options though.

Got the new Gerbing G3 with the Microwire technology. They are GREAT! Tried on the G5's and they seemed too bulky to me. Anything Gerbing is money well spent.

Gerbing stuff is awesome. I wouldn't take twice my money back for my insoles come time for Bike Week. It was 28 last year when we pulled out. I was nice and toasty with my heated gear.

I have a set of Tourmaster heated gloves. 3 winters now and love them! :2vrolijk_21:

Compare the warrantees for each and decide.

Used the G3's yesterday. I have them wired to my Polaris Ranger, also my John Deere tractor with snowblower. Plowed and blew snow for 3 hrs in 10 degree wind and never got cold hands. They work great. You can also use them on a motorcycle. Waterproof too.

I would go with Gerbing.
Gerbing makes the HD heated stuff.
Gerbing has lifetime warranty.
I have the micro wire nubuck gerbing gloves and love them.

I use the gerbing jacket liner and Hd(Gerbing) gloves for my cold weather riding. Gerbing pretty much owns the micro wire market as far as i know . It seems like most mc manufacturers that have cloths lines and are heated go w/ Gerbings. I live right by the manufacturing plant. HOW cool is that ?? :orange:

I have the new Harley Liner and Gloves, and while I think the Liner works great, you really have to crank the gloves to feel the heat from them. I use this stuff while plowing the snow on my Deer tractor, and even at full, I can barely feel the gloves. The Liner on the other hand, I have to turn below 1/2 or I start sweating. Go figure.
-
I would send the gloves back. My g3 will almost burn me going slow on full and keep my hands very warm going 60 when it is only 25 degrees out. My wife's T5 are even warmer billy

First Gear, Warm Gear, Aeostich, Cozy winters and a few thers are made by Warm & Safe heated gear.
I'm not knocking Gerbing heated gear, but it's all made in China.

Micro wire isn't really new tech. Been around for years.
