Cold Pro Hand Mitts – Universal Handlebar Mount Wind & Cold Weather Protection for Motorcycles & ATVs

I threw these on the BMW F800 GS because i wasn't really didn't want to invest in a set of winter gloves at the moment. For reference, I'm currently running a set of Knox Urbane Pro mesh gloves with an AXIAL windproof underliner that works fine until you hit about 12C or so. When you get to those temps, the heated grips just get cooled off by the wind and do next to nothing to warm your hands. I used to run something like this on snowmobiles back when i lived in a place with snow, so this seemed like a good solution.For fit, it's patently designed for bikes with handguards. If your bike does not have handguards on it, these will probably be somewhat large. It doesn't help that the front straps on to the handguards, so for street bikes that don't have any guards I'd go with something smaller. I think that's where the size complaints are coming from. My 800GS has the BMW factory handguards on it with the plastic wind shields, and the Tusk mitts fit over them and strapped on just fine. Only fitment problem I had was with the brake fluid reservoir on the right side. I did get it to fit, but it was tight. The 800GS has a large reservoir though, so this might not be an issue on other bikes. If you have a dirt bike, scrambler, or ADV with flat bars and handguards, this should fit on your bike with minimal hassle. Install takes maybe 10 minutes (mainly dealing with the fiddly handguard straps). It's not something i'd want to take on or off a bike every time I ride, but throwing it on for a season and taking it off when it warms up won't be a hassle.As for actual use, I have no issues using the heated grip toggle, start/kill button, and the brights and turn signals. Changing dash info using the info button and using the hazards is pretty cramped, which is a problem since my BMW's body computer is broken (and irreplaceable, thanks VIN locking) and my turn signal cancel doesn't work, leaving the hazard button the only way to cancel. I can use it, but it's tight. If you have controls that are close to the mirrors like that, it might be a mild issue. They also have a bad tendency on collapsing in high winds (think 125kph or higher), which makes using top mounted controls a bit more cumbersome.As for warmth, they are certainly not totally windproof, I think some wind comes in where it's strapped to the bars, but it does a pretty decent job. With my heated grips on full, my hands will keep warm. It's a night and day difference from going with just the bare wind protectors on the handguards, It hasn't rained in a while, so I haven't been able to test the waterproofing, but I doubt it's something to be totally relied upon. I think for lighter rain and snow it should be adequate.Do note that it never has gotten below -5c this year while I've been out riding, so people in colder climates might struggle more. If you live in an area with mild winters, this might be enough to carry you a couple more months of riding. That said, I'd really start to question these as an all-in-one solution below that temperature. My thumbs were starting to get cold due to the wind ingress and the lack of any thermal insulation on my summer gloves. It wasn't super uncomfortable, but if you plan on riding at like -8C these will help, but you're just going to need warmer gloves. And without heated grips, I just wouldn't bother with these at all and go with heated gloves instead.For $40, I don't think you will go wrong with these. Just note that they might not be a complete solution and you will probably need extra gear if you plan on going into ultra cold territories.

These work well for the price they cost. Not the greatest fit, but at $35 compared to over $100 and up for other brands, they work well. I wish there were different sizes to choose from, but that would raise prices. I have them mounted on a 22 KTM 390 Adventure with Barkbuster handguards. There is about 2" of space between the outer end of the handguard and the hand mitts. I can not move the mitts into the bars closer because of mirror location. You can't tell that it doesn't fit right by looks, but it makes the bars about 4" wider total. I use these in the winter and will put them in my panniers if calling for rain or long trips. I do think they will last as they seem to be well made, and they do what they are designed for. (keeping wind and rain off your hands. 4 stars instead of 5 only because they are not as nice as the higher price brands. But for the price, they are great.

I have been avoiding the high cost of the other popular versions of these and finally found out about this version from Tusk. Works just fine and has kept me from putting the heated grips on so far with temps going down to freezing.Zip ties to help hold them in place on the very ends of the Barkbusters.

I'm sure these work great in the right application but they do not fit around mirror posts so unless you want to remove your mirrors do not get these

Just as described

It’s a tight fit with the Storm handguards, but I managed to place these so that they don’t hit any of the switch gear, particularly the engine on/off switch and wonder wheel. The mitts do not hit the TFT with the handlebar locked.There are plenty of straps and one fail safe buckle, so no concerns about flying off while riding. It only takes about 5 minutes installing them with a little experience.These create a warm environment with the heated grips on. With heated grips and without the mitts, the bottom side of your hand would be warm and the top would freeze. So, having mitts are a must imho. Also, I rode in light rain and they kept my hands dry. They won’t completely cover your hands if you have large hands, so in a downpour you might get wet in the wrist area. I wish the mitts extended back over the hands a bit further. That is a bit disappointing.Overall pretty good, especially for the price.

Great value!

Living in a cold area, thought I'd try these from TUSK. TUSK has a great reputation for quality products and I use quite a few of theirs. Well, I bought these for cold day's, and tried them on a VERY cold morning. They helped, but as I found out. Not very safe. I ride a KTM 390 Adventure and they seem to be WAY big for it and stick out a few inches too much. But what was the worst part, I am also wearing winter gloves and between that also, it's hard to fell for the blinkers, high beam and most of all, the horn which I needed the other day and wasn't able to feel it in time. So I got home and turned the bike off. I tried feeling around and get a better feel for the control's, but seemed impossible. I just felt due to their bulkiness, it wasn't safe to use on THIS bike, maybe if TUSK didn't make a "one size fit's all" one, I'd buy them.
