Looking to put them on my Ultra any pros or cons would be great

Had the grips...got the gloves...I've ridden in +20 F weather with each and hands down (pun intended) the gloves worked far better!Shutterbug said:Can't speak for heated grips but they just don't seem like they'd keep your whole hand warm, just the palms.

so I'll just say that my HD heated grips were a rare manufacturer defect and did not work at all.
Heated gloves seems to be cheaper, and require a hell of a lot less work to hook up.
I remember seeing some company that makes a vest that has hook ups on the cuff so you aren't really wired COMPLETELY to the bike, just at one accessory point.
Heated gloves keep the whole hand warm ... rode 30 miles in to work in 29 deg temps twice last week, the Gerbing gloves work great!kingjoe said:Now if I could only keep the back of my hands warm.......:whatever:
