I got a Gerbing's http://www.gerbing.com/index.htm heated jacket and gloves. Decided on the jacket instead of the vest because it keeps my arms warm as well. I got them at a bike show and the fellow talked my out of the pants. Not sure that was a good idea but have noticed that if I wear a pair of rain pants the wind does not get thru so the jacket and gloves tend to do the job pretty well. The nice thing about their setup is the way it connects, if you have an accessory plug then you use that end, otherwise they come with a plug that connects directly to the battery and the plug end snakes out under the seat. Makes riding in January and February enjoyable. And to keep this somewhat on topic, I find the gloves a tad cumbersome for shooting while riding so when I am on the r1100r, I use a thinner glove and the heated grips.
