PowerMadd 34258 Handguard Gauntlet, Black

These are essential for riding below 40F. Before i got them my hands were freezing no matter how fat the glove I was wearing. Now, I have a Kawasaki ninja which is a sport bike, so the original mud guards don't fit my handlebars. If I put these guantlets without the guards the wind is gonna push on them and they are gonna press on the front brakes and the clutch. Not good. So I got an aluminum bar at home depot, bent and cut it to desired length and shape, put parallel to the handle bars over the levers, put guantlets over, strap tight the aluminum bar and the handlebars. Done. Sturdy and does the job.

The guantlets work very well with my snowmobile. Great fit and could be used on a 4-wheeler also. A lot less expensive and they have much more wind protection then the brand name gauntlets offered from the manufacturer of my snowmobile. A great item to help you keep warm when riding in below zero temperatures. My husband ordered a pair and likes them as much as I do.

I put these on my 2019 Polaris Indy XC and the worked great going over the factory hand guards. The keep the wind off your hands. They are open and all controls are visible. Most of the time I needed to keep the hand and thumb warmers off as my hands would become too warm.Bottom line, these are a great purchase!

A little too big for me, they did keep me warm but very bulky.

I rate these an 8/10. As far as keeping your hands out of the elements they are fantastic! Several rides in snowy terrain, with a heavy snowfall coming down and my hands were perfectly dry upon returning back to my home. They do still let some air in, so don’t expect them to be the end all as far as cold hands go, as my throttle thumb was quite chilly still. The reason for an 8, and not an overall 10 is that they were kind of hard to get mounted. The directions that accompany them are sort of hard to follow, and could use some cleaning up. Overall I do recommend these to other shoppers!

They are well built and work great

Keeps the cold air off my hands much better than my barkbusters handguards alone. I actually have to use the lower settings on my heated gloves or turn them off. Lowest temperature I’ve ridden in was 23F and I had no problem. They keep their shape well and it is still very easy to access all controls quickly on my Versys-X 300. If you don’t have handguards these likely wouldn’t work well for you since they are only semi rigid. Great product!

As the temps dropped into the teens in Pittsburgh my hands would get cold above 40 mph on my motorcycle. Not an issue now with these gauntlets. They make a huge difference and now my hands stay warm with the same gloves on. I did have to add holes for my mirror arms but this was easy. I like how they stay open while I am riding. There are other brands that are cheaper but I was concerned that would close up and that I would have to take my eyes off of the road to get my hands back on the bars after adjusting my visor. Not an issue with ATV or sleds but something to consider if you will be on the road.
