Get some big winter gloves, Hein Gericke do some fab ones.

Big winter gloves I have many pairs of! the hand guards combined with heated grips allow lightweight gloves to be worn in all but the most severe conditions Wink

for the winter i put a big screen on, it has hand guards built in. as the previous person said, cut it down to the height you want. full height is dangerous by the way as when dark and wet visibility is awful

I now have the screen and am picking up courage to start cutting it down. It has a plastic edging which is very well stuck so for now I will cut through that as well till I find the best wat to remove it.
