VERY hot when worn over a shirt and under a sweater. Comes with controller and plug.
Contoller only has two heat settings, may not be enough for some. Cable is actually very long - shorter cable would have suited me. Cost £190 is not a cheap bit of kit.
After reading numerous reviews on heated kit I decided to try out BMW's offering. They are unusually good quality kit if a little over priced.
No exceptions here then! Very light weight jacket liner without collar or sleeves (prefer this as it can get a bit tight with all your riding gear on!)
Plugs straight into BMW socket and provides instant heat. Control box can be knocked and this has happened to me a few times turning the heat up to unbearable or off!
Quality seems great as I expected, uses carbon pads instead of normal wires.
