Heated Jacket

I have just ordered a heated jacket for winter riding.
It's a Keis RP501 jacket, but just hoping that the sizing will fit me, as I am quite a big lad.
Got the size 60 (euro) for £163 inc controller, which is a bit of a bargain tbh.
Should keep my core nice and warm over the next couple of months.

Now, to get the bike booked in for heated grips.

That looks great for the price, would you wear something over it or not?

I will see when it arrives, but probably yes. Take the liner out of my textile jacket and wear that over the top.

Don't forget heated motorcycle socks, boots, seat cover, handlebar grips, trousers, underpants, gillet, jacket, gloves, helmet, baraclava, neck warmer

PMSL, jacket and grips should be fine, although they do make a heated seat :-)

Well, jacket has arrived and it's very good.
Gets warm quickly and keeps the chills away.
Had an issue where the controller wasn't in the box, but the company apologized and pinged one of for next day :-)

I have also purchased the adapter cable so it can connect to my optimate cable that is already attached to the battery.
Less faffing around.
She is at the Dealers today (Powerslide) getting my heated grips fitted, they have a lovely red version of my bike in there.
