Riding Through The Cranborne Chase
On this ride through the Cranborne Chase National Landscape, I open the discussion as to which motorcycle navigation app is the best all-rounder. As well as pointing out some areas for improvement which I've noticed, I'm also asking for your suggestions in the comments section, in the hopes that we can give this user feedback to the developers who can then make their apps better for us motorcyclists!

How To Connect An Oxford Oximiser 900
The A272 hasn't been routed through Maresfield since the creation of the Uckfield bypass. It also continues for several miles to the east before terminating at a T-junction with the A267 south of Five Ashes - maps.app.goo.gl/63B8NkvPvyDfgvuHA In earlier times it used to go via Uckfield to a T-junction with the A265 at Blackboys. It subsequently swapped numbers with the B2102 east of Piltdown. The key to enjoying the A272 is getting out there early doors. Best done at weekends and finish at a café for breakfast. There is no such town as Cowdray. That's the village of Easebourne which is conjoined with Midhurst. The nearby estate is Cowdray Park owned by Viscount Cowdray. The overtake of the silver car @2:01 is not only unsafe, it's also a moving traffic offence. Ignoring the painted arrow and being on the wrong side of the solid white line.
Correct me if I'm wrong. But wouldn't the would be thief just have to unbolt it from the bike the same way you attached it ? 🤔 I've watched the video a few times and I'm still coming to the same conclusion. Am I missing something ?😕
Pocket - Garage opener clicker.
Thanks for the information
12v cable heated gloves best of both worlds.
Nice review. Would you mind sharing your ht/wt and what size vest did you buy?
Thanks! I'm 175cm and 75kg on my best days! I wore a Medium for the review and it fit snugly without restricting any movements.
Which size is best suited for someone that wears M size cloths?
I'd buy the M size if you are an M usually. The adjustable straps make it fairly versatile in terms of sizing. Going too large will compromise safety, too small will be uncomfortable. Let us know how you get on with whichever size you end up buying 👍 You can also use the following link to see their sizing guide helitemoto.com/sizing/
New Member, I'll be watchin.
That smell is OSR or .”oil seed rape”….( yellow flowers) It’s the main ingredient in vegetable oils and is labeled often as canola oil. The blue fields are linseed…. which is another oil crop.
I believe the yellow crop in the fields is Rape. The oil is Rapeseed Oil which is used for making vegetable cooking oil.
Ahh, thank you. I was wondering why there were so many of these fields along this route. They look brilliant on a sunny day with the blue sky above them.
the yellow fields you could see and smell are planted with oil seed rape.
Waze for speed cameras and Scenic for motorcyclists are the ones I use
I've used Waze, not tried Scenic yet. I will now though 👍 do you find either of these more complete than Google Maps?
@@RiderUK20 Hi, Waze is now owned by Google. I find Waze more intuitive than Google maps but that may be because I used it for years and am very familiar with it. Also it is the only sat nav I have found that offers free speed cameras. I set the cruise at 69 on the motorway so as not to be too intrusive with warnings. Scenic is great for planning and recording rides and you can import and export GPX files from other sat navs. Not sure about BMW Sat Nav as I'm picking bike up next week. I paid for the premium version of Scenic way back in 2016 and it is set for life. You can upload maps from anywhere in the world. I believe that you can upload a file of speed cameras but not tried to do so. Hope this helps
@@RiderUK20 I believe that Waze is now owned by Google (or Alphabet). I prefer Waze because it highlights speed cameras for free, whereas none of the others do, or rather I haven't bothered to try and find out. I have used Waze for many years so am familiar with it I also use Scenic and bought the premium (for life) version about seven years ago (I think $50). Scenic allows transfer in and out of GPX files so you can plan on a different product and import routes or export saved routes/rides as well. It has maps for the whole world so is great for route planning when you are on your travels. I believe that you can download speed camera files for Scenic though never tried as Waze is so good. I am getting a new BMW next week with the Connected Ride Navigator so will probably end up using three sat navs, but we shall see.
It definitely helps, that's a lot of useful insight, thank you. I'll have to try Scenic this season and get some experience with it. It seems to be popular.
I was lead to believe that Waze just uses Google data, and when I was using Waze I did not find that it added much in the way of functionality. It just sat unused in my phone for ages since I was using Google for in the car already, and I just couldn't be bothered to switch back and forth. For real off-road and track navigation, I've started using Gaia. I don't have much experience with Gaia yet, but seems pretty intuitive so far.
Great bit of protective gear cheaper than hospital bills well worth it if you consider all the pros and cons
Thank you for this video, this was very helpful! 💛🏍️
damn, read that 'review' too late...
I'll go with the grips as I can choose between summer or winter gloves and the level of protection. I had an accident last October with a low slide at 50mph on my FJ1200. Your hands go out automatically to save you, and even though I sustained a dislocated shoulder, my hands we unscathed! A shoulder can be fixed, but a hand that has been completely worn away from dew to road-rash would probably result in an amputation. So heated grips are a win for me!
It's a good point, the grips are less limiting in terms of wearable protection. Although some brands like Gerbing do make premium quality heated gloves that offer ample protection against impact and abrasion.
Use heated inner gloves, from Keis for example
With experience you never put your hand out if you go over the point of no return, pull your arms in, the padding of elbows and shoulders on your jacket as well as a crash helmet will lessen injury, stay up right.
I dont buy apps, load of bollox, can find sources that are free.
Underrated channel mate. This best rides near London series is top tier 👍
Thanks for the compliment, I appreciate it 👊 there'll be some more rides this summer too! Any areas in particular you'd like to see?
IF one already have great heated grips which obviously are still unable to provide direct heat to the BACK of the hand and fingers? Then it sure does seem to be a shame I dont see ANY heated gloves that I can disconnect power to the palm side of gloves! Because obviously if you only need to power HALF of the glove's heating element then the battery life will be TWICE as long...I mean duhh! And so so many modern motorcycles DO come with really good heated grips...but if it is really cold damp windy? They might be simultaneously woefully lacking on the back of the hand as they are too hot for the palm....PLEASE one of you premium manufactures of heated gloves? Just give us a way to disable the palm side and double our battery life ...is that so hard??
There is also an opportunity for MC makers to sell heated gloves like above that are directly powered by your heated grips! No battery needed! I envision coorisponding conductive contact points on your heated grips and heated gloves meaning no wires no connectors! Just holding the grip powers the gloves and power level is all the same control! Maybe something in menu too to assign percentages grips vs back of glove...no element needed in palm area obviously....good idea? I sure think so
Never used heated gloves, have used installed Oxford heated grips on my cruiser for several winters now, they are great, but if the temp is below freezing (-2 to -8C) they are next to useless, you will feel no heat from them. Something to keep in mind.
It really affirms that gloves are the more effective way to keep your hands warm individually, but the combination of both might be better yet.
To me, you missed the actual most important factor, testing them side by side and saying which one kept your hands the most comfortable on an actual ride.
The little pocket on the front is great for an ICE a card and also putting peage or carpark tickets in My Helite is well used, the hi is really shows the dirt/grime. Keep it clean with some Swarfega and a rinse Most important is to wear it!!
Racing games, both casual games and serious racing games have always been my favorite genre, I just saw a review of Ride 5 and after sadly learning its not available on the XBox One, I am really considering buying Ride 4, and this review is certainly helping sway me towards buying it. Thanks!
It's definitely a fun game, one worth playing even if it isn't the newest version. Glad the review was helpful!
I have both heated grips and battery heated gloves. I dropped the latter as they are cumbersome to charge and won’t last long. So I now also have connected my heated gloves to the bike battery which is the best of both worlds.
I usually pick up the 272 from Winchester down to Loomies cafe, which is normally the highlight of the trip. Meet some other riders, drool over some bikes and grab a brew.
Ah nice! Loomies does look like a fun stop. I'm sure there's some amazing riding down the lesser ridden roads around there. Might have to make another trip out that way before summer's up!
Best way to keep hands warm is a car 😅
A great review with some possible improvements: 1. Use a temperature sensor to remove the subjectivity 2. Riding to be separated into 2 categories; town and country 3. Heated gloves are 2-3 times the cost of heated grips in Australia so long term costs should favour the grips. 4. Modern gloves quite often come with insulation and even reflective foil on top of the hand which would improve heat retention for the grips 5. If the time to warm up grips vs gloves is only 30 seconds different then it is not decisive 6. Convenience is subjective as the grips are always useable on one bike and the gloves can go with multiple bikes if you remember them My personal use is heated glove liners bought in the UK in 1985. Only use them when temperatures are lower than 5 deg celsius on a long ride... Probably will go with gloves when the costs lower a little more..
What about wearing them in the summer?
They're very comfortable all summer long. I'm still wearing them during this hot weather we're having, and they don't feel stuffy at all.
@@RiderUK20 that’s cool thanks! I’ll try to wear them even in July and August here in Italy and hope for the best haha
You can get away with it 😉👍
thank you for your review!
A bit of a late reply to this, but most Hot Grips have 5 heat settings, so your points from versatility would get sent back to the grips, making the grips a narrow winner Gloves are definitely a better option for anyone with multiple bikes and living in icy conditions, however, for lower temperatures, i find heated grips work well for me as i have far too many products to charge as it is, i can only imagine the frustration of needing my heated gloves and finding i forgot to charge them and having frozen hands for a ride.
You need both. Even with Barkbusters and Oxford heated grips (UK spec, 9 settings) your fingertips will get cold (at least mine) below 5°C. I'm running Keis G701's as well as heated grips, perfect combo. Battery for gloves last for ages (even though hook up for motorcycle is available).
Those are an excellent pair of heated gloves. Keis make some of the best heated gear in general. I wrote about a few of their best items in a blog on the Rider UK website. If you're interested it's linked below: rideruk.com/is-heated-motorcycle-gear-worth-it/
Riding in the southern UK this year at minus 3 degrees with heated grips on my Rocket 3R. Above 1 degree the grips are good but, over 40 mph, the wind sheer and the iced levers burn my hands. The grips don't help the front of your fingers. Heated gloves solved that for me. I don't need warm hands - just ones that work and don't freeze.
Very good point about the levers, they don't make heated ones...yet! Another pro in favour of heated gloves 👍
Hiya How much is electricity consumption 🤔
Hmm, I couldn't tell you. I don't keep it connected for long periods of time so it doesn't use a noticeable amount. Certainly costs less than replacing a dead battery.
Herd throughout the year maintaining you battery it don’t hardly use anything. £3-£5 if that max!
Who cares 🤷🏻♂️
Heated grips with handle bar muffs. Provides heat, protects from wind chill and regular gloves provide better dexterity than winter/heated gloves.
just use muffs…much simpler and effective.
Do proper motorcycle gloves fit easily inside those? I see a lot of scooter riders using them without protective gloves on, which is obviously a terrible idea.
@@RiderUK20 they do. Depending on the model you have there are no handling issues whatsoever. SW Motech has a more expensive version which is quite sturdy and doesn't limit hand movement at all. I use those with normal leather motorcycle gloves since using a winter one has no sense with these muffs.
I've had many heated grips over the years. I've found the one's supplied from the manufacturer, to be crap tbh. Also very over priced. I had the cheap r&g one's about £40. And they was better than the yamaha one's, which failed twice in 6 months. Only use Oxford hot grips now, as never had an issue personally. I fit them on every bike and use upto the "proper" winter. Then I use the heated gloves Gerbing to be precise, which I've had for 3 years now. Which are absolutely brilliant and I use straight from the bike. The battery's in my opinion are an over priced unnecessary add on. Takes seconds to plug In and never have to worry about them again. Gloves are better hands down as they heat the backs of the hand and each finger. As said I still use the grips, but in the real cold temps. They just heat you're palm and your fingers get cold still. I've also got the Gerbing heated under jacket, which I brought at the same time. I'm still yet to turn it on, as it's very warm without the heated side.
Well that's a fair summary I'd say. Glad you mentioned those specific heated items too. I just wrote a blog answering the question of whether or not heated motorcycle gear is worth it. You can read it here rideruk.com/is-heated-motorcycle-gear-worth-it/ I think we both know the answer, but my point is that I recommended my favourite heated products in the blog. Unsurprisingly Gerbing heated gloves and jacket liners made the pick, so I'm glad you can back that up!
@Rider UK Hi, sorry I didn't mention that it was good content, though so apologies. But yes, the two are night and day for proper winter conditions. But I do still use both as necessary.
Gloves heated grips don't heat the back of your hands or the tips of your fingers 🤌
Heated gloves are certainly better for heating a wider area across the back of your hand and down your fingers. Grips are obviously better for the inside of your hand. A combo of the two offers the most heated coverage, but this video was to decide which was best as a standalone solution.
You are brave putting heated grips on a little lexmoto 🤣
🤣 too true, they came fitted!
I big point is being missed here , the main problem with cold hands in the winter is wind chill , if you’re travelling on a bike at 70 mph and the temperature is +3 , it’s really about -6 on your hands . After living in Norway for 10 years the answer is heated gloves/ grips a good pair of hand guards( not the designer ones which cover the levers but large ones ( you can always take them of in the summer) been riding 50 years and I know it works 😊👍👍
Hand guards are definitely a good shout! 👍 been looking at some myself and would also recommend looking beyond what the popular brands have to offer. There's some more practical, and often less pricey, accessories to be found if you search around.
I disagree. I'd use heated grips with handle bar mitts, and then the heat is trapped for maximum coverage. That way I can continue to use my standard gloves which give me a better feel of the levers and throttle.
Gloves powered by the bike a no brainer or grips get both and proper hand gaurds I am 67 and hate the cold but ride all year round
Heated grips in northern Germany at -8 did nothing. My hands were like ice. I bought some cheap, universal handlebar muffs for the trip home, and the temps reached -3, but I had my grips off, summer gloves, and my hands were toasty warm. Both trips were at 70/80 mph on motorways. Tried barkbuster blizzard covers, and they were useless. A total waste of money. When winter comes around, my €15 mitts come out.
I think the grips get round 4, if you forget to charge the gloves when you are late getting home the next ride could be a cold one. I've forgotten to charge my sena headset and ended up having them die half way home. Charging vs always having power is more convenient in my opinion.
Fair point! How do you feel about heated gear that is powered via the bike itself?
@@RiderUK20 in not sure I would remember to unplug when I got off the bike. I live in an area where only my hands really need assistance. We get 30f only a few times a year and I mostly get 40f+ for my morning commute. A few of us at work are discussing how best to keep our hands warm in the mornings. Your video certainly helped us with our deliberations.
That's always the problem with being connected to the bike. I reviewed a Helite airvest and found the same problem with the tethering. One of the advantages to battery powered heated gear I suppose. Anyway, glad the video helped 👍
BOTH. If you're dumb enough to ride after you've scraped the ice off your seat, you'll need BOTH.
haha I would totally forget to remove it, my dad did it with his scooter forgetting he had a D lock through the back wheel, he gave it some revs starting it and smashed his mudguard off , I laughed so hard when he told me.
Oh no! It can happen to the best of us when we're in a rush. Hope your dad wasn't too upset!
I would say, for winter highway riding and cold autumn and spring mornings, get both. For me at least, my heated gloves keep my hands warm enough only at the highest setting when we are talking about temperatures below 10 Celsius, which makes it worthless for long period riding as the battery runs out in an hour or so. When you combine the toasty feel of heated grips and the comfortable feel of the warmness from the heated gloves, they make a perfect combo together. You feel almost like it’s just summer outside. No pain. I only tested this at the lowest of 5 Celsius. Haven’t yet got to ride on lower temps with this combo, but I also haven’t used the highest temp setting on the grips yet either. So I’m confident it will be the same for freezing temps too. PS: Using original Yamaha heated grips for the MT-09.
Too much expensive
what is diference between Helite Turtle version 1 and 2?
I'd probably keep my license/registration/insurance in the front pocket. They also have a black version now (though I still picked the yellow). As for cost - a good helmet costs the same. After your head, your neck and torso are probably the next things to protect and worth it.
great review, thank you, would you recommend going a size up?
Possibly, yes. If you prefer the extra room for movement. Although they weren't restrictive, they were quite fitted.
Don't wear a backpack with the jacket.
Great vid. U deserve more subs
What goes in the pocket ? Condoms of course. This is all about maximum protection.
