Heated Jacket Liner and Gloves
Backround – I use the heated gear for my motorcycle trips. Even in the summer, if you are out west and in the mountains, it can get cold. As such, it’s always on the bike. It works great too. We’ve ridden in the teens and while I won’t say we were toasty, we didn’t die of exposure. That said, the G3s are the weak link. They get warm, but not hot. On the bike at 75 MPH in 28 degree weather, they maintain enough warmth so as not to be uncomfortable though. So I was hoping on the atv they would work in the much colder 3 degree temps I was plowing in because of less wind.
Well I’m happy to say they did work! I went from freezing hands to warm hands just like that. I had the jacket liner down very low as my body maintains heat pretty well. What a difference it made! I could have stayed on that thing all day. I had the lights off, but was working the winch here and there for plowing. The low charge light never came on at all.
So all in all a success. I’m confident that on trails with (led) lights on, running at higher sustained RPMs, the heated gear will work just as well.

Touring Rear footrest Support Mod for Big Tires
I really want to run 28’s, and I see no reason why there’s so much support back there. I don’t have a 500lb passenger standing on the rear footwells. There’s a support coming up from the bottom; why not just cut off the top part and add some more support at the bottom if necessary?
