muff and can be wrapped around the mir- ror stalk or something else to provide a slip- free installation. Though the Wunderlich muffs work well
and are durable and rugged, they may not fit every motorcycle. A GS with stock or average-sized hand guards in place is fine, but if you have extra-large hand guards on your bike, these muffs may not fit. Also, if your bike does not have handlebar- mounted mirrors, the muffs may obstruct your view of the rearview mirrors. Fortu- nately, if either of those things applies, a quick call to Wunderlich’s customer sup- port number can get you squared away with a refund or suggestions for alternatives. Because the muffs are semi-rigid, you don’t have to have a GS to use them; Wunderlich says they made these muffs with BMWs in mind, but they should work on a wide vari- ety of motorcycles of any marque. The hand opening is not adjustable, but
once you get the hang of inserting your hands into the opening, it comes to you eas- ily on repeated use. The opening is big enough to wiggle through for most folks, but not so big that large amounts of wind will seep through around your jacket sleeve. The big benefit of handlebar muffs is that
you can get away with either using gloves with less insulation in them (for better feel on the grips) or, by using gloves with heavier insulation, you can ride in comfort in lower temperatures than you could with- out the muffs. Wunderlich’s muffs have a light layer of insulation built in, which boosts their utility over muffs that are only wind and waterproof. They are well made, with quality stitching
throughout and
excellent materials. I expect to get many (cold) seasons of use from them.
