     Raynauds disease eh!.........had to look it up................... Yep! know all about it, I just knew it as "whitefinger".  Been sufferin from it for years!

    Don't seem to matter whether it's cold or warm..........still get a lot of the time. I can ride 15 kays to work and end up with fingers like this.........

    other days I can ride 300+ kays and nothin!

    Let me know if the heated grips help mate.........gotta wonder if gangrene might set in one day......that'd sure SUCK!

    Pain in the arse, I know, I even get it drivin a fukn car sometimes!

    Tried some special gloves....QWI nerve protector........didn't do shit to help though!

    Might be able to compare fingers on the Coota run!! Ha Ha!

    I have the heat demons on my fatty, but they don't work real well. I think it may be because I have the Willie-G glue-less grips so there is a bit of an air gap between the bar and the grip which lessens the effect of the heat transfer.

    I can set them on high and can barely feel them through my gloves. I even tried light gloves the other day and the heat was barely noticeable and the temp outside was about 14 degrees. So not what I would call cold.

    I had a set of Oxford heated hand grips on a Japa and I would have to turn them down or it felt like my fingers were burning.

    If anyone can offer an idea to try and make mine more affective, I am open to suggestions.
