【LEAD】WARMTH KS-209 Waterproof Handle Cover Review
Good Cost performance
I bought it early because I knew my hands would get cold when I commuted to work.
I use Summer Gloves because the Blinker is tough to operate with the heavy Winter Gloves. I have been using it for about 3 weeks, including rainy days and extremely cold days, and I have no problem at all on rainy days; I can only feel the coldness of the lever because it is Summer Gloves, and I have no problem putting my hand in and out, which was my main concern. I was considering purchasing electric heated gloves, but I think this Cover will get me through. I am concerned about some details, but considering the price, I think it has excellent cost performance.

Transfer to a vehicle without Grip heater,
I bought these because my fingertips get cold even with winter gloves.
Installation is easy, anyone could do it in 5 minutes.
I was worried that the Handlebar Cover would be difficult to remove and insert my hand.
This product is well molded and does not get stuck when you put your hand in it.
The feel of the controls is fine for Lever, but Blinkerretc. is a bit difficult to press.
I used it for touring on a day when the temperature was below 10 degrees Celsius during the day.
（I would say (with summer gloves) not quite warm, but not numbingly cold.
Grip, I feel like I've been freed from the worries of choosing Gloves.

Blinker is hard to operate.
We had been using Komine's Neoprene fabric, but it was deteriorating badly over time, so we decided to replace it.
The previous version had a large hole in the Grip section so that the BlinkerButton could be inserted into the Cover, but this version does not allow it.
When I try to operate the Blinker through the Cover, it presses the HornButton.
My Motorcycle is a 2019 HondaCB650R
I don't know if it's because the BlinkerLever and HornButton positions are reversed on recent Honda Motorcycles.

Very warm, but Brake return is poor.
I installed it on a PCX125 Initial Model.
I have been using winter gloves for winter, but my hands get cold after running for a long time with them, so I decided to buy these for a trial run, which are less expensive than electric gloves and grip heaters and seem to be more effective.
The installation itself on the PCX125 can be done without any problems.
However, since the return of Brake will be slower, there may be times when Brake is applied without being noticed.
I can't say it's all due to this product, as I also have a knuckle guard installed, so maybe that's having an effect...
The effect was quite high, and even at this time of the year in December, I had no problem at all with just one thin Gloves.
If the temperature becomes so cold that I feel cold even with this, I plan to use it with hot hand warmeretc. but I am satisfied that it has been more effective than I had expected.

Good product. I'm glad I bought it. View detail
I should have put it on sooner.
They provide more protection from the cold than any expensive Winter Gloves.
In the middle of winter, a Handlebar Cover + bare hands is totally fine, but I always use a Handlebar Cover + Grip heater + military gloves.
Clearly, only the hands are a different world.
It works fine even on rainy days, and I think the inner boa also works well.
