Nothing on mine only bike I have not had anything on the bars in winter,
the local Yamaha dealer fitts some semi rigid ones that look good though
I have not tried them I will try to remember the make.

Yes, Tucano Urbano ones - they make the best muffs!

A bit off topic but I noticed yesterday the Xmax 400 has disappeared from Yamaha's Uk website. I know someone else thought this happended a while ago but it was still there last week, certainly in the special edition. It has most defintely gone now but is still showing on Yamaha's other European sites as a main model. I wonder what the future is for that model?

Easy to fit? I'm still rinding to work with only normal winter gloves and this week suffered. Need to get my digits protected! :roll:

These are the ones I have seen.
Thanks Ralph. These look good. Time for me to ask a stupid question, having never used or owned muffs on a bike. What gloves do you use with them - winter, summer?

Yeah. Even I can fit them!!! Depends on the exact model - mine just slide over the bars and are secured to the bar ends with cable ties. Others have various velcro arrangements. Some say you should take the bar end off, but I never do....

Whatever you need! I think I have delicate digits, so I tend to use pretty warm winter gloves under the muffs during the winter. On less cold days, lighter gloves can be used - purely personal preference. On really cold days I've ended up with Muffs, winter gloves and the heated grips on! btw Muffs make heated grips or gloves much more effective as they keep the heat in.

I usually wear winter gloves nothing like warm fingers, just make sure you can grab the brakes ok.
