Oxford Rainseal Handlebar Muffs

I got mine when I got the Oxford Touring heated grips. They make a great combination. I am very impressed with these two Oxford products. |

I have been using hippo hands for years of year round use on my ural along with heated grips and bark busters for riggidity. I had been riding my ural as primary vehicle for the past 4 years in temps as low as -23f wear only mechanics gloves. Snow rain whatever. Hippo hands are no longer being made so the oxfords mentioned above looks like a good alternative. My ride to work is about 25 miles each way at speeds between 45 - 60 mph.

In comparison, the Oxfords are slimmer. I think they would be a good option if you don't have hand guards. |

Yes, they are moving ahead with the TT 250. Here are links to two threads on the CSC TT250 which are located in our Dual Sport/Enduro Forum.

It is not hearty, it is a sickness I need to ride no matter what the weather. I actually like riding in the cold weather. Lets face it it is no different than snowmobiling.

I believe the Center for Disease Control has identified Snowmobiling as an acute but treatable illness. They list a number of approved treatment centers that are open October through March each year. All of them are located South of Interstate 40.

While you are at it, why not get a larger, custom windshield. You can also mount panels in front of the radiators for added wind protection, and install a larger trunk.
