hand guards and heated grips

[misterprofessionality]

I have the factory heated grips.

I guess my answer to which, having never used any other would just be- how much do you want them to blend in or stand out?

I love them and see no reason for hand guards with them.

the hand guards are just an added bit of help. i ride in all weather all year round, and though it doesn't get proper frigid here, it can get as low as 17 or 18 degrees F. stopping the wind from blowing over my fingers could be a big help during those times.

as for why i would ask for alternatives, it's really just a matter of seeing if there's anything that's objectively better, or if it's just a matter of price. for example, the Chicdesign guards are pricey compared to many others. if here's anything else in a dark tinted guard that i can find evidence is just as good, it's worth considering.

The same goes for the price of the OEM handwarmers vs. others. it's just due diligence.
