Default ATV Handwarmers

I'm wanting to put some hand warmers on my quad. Any recommendations would be helpful?

Be sure you hook them up so that the main switch turns them off. I've had a few times where the battery went dead due to the handwarmers being left on.

Be sure to get one that has a thumb warmer,

True, far more important than the hand warmer. Never had a cold hand, have had a cold thumb a few times.

The thumb warmer I put on my quad was too hot even on the lowest setting burned my thumb right through my gloves. I opted to go with handgrip warmers and snowmobile cuffs that cover my handle bar grips.
They attach to the handle bars very easy to pull your warm hands out when required.

I used the brand name moose on my polaris's good instructions and had the thumb warmer too, for a can am id use their own, plug and play so easy. Maybe yamaha has their own that just plugs in like the canam does, i dont know though.

I used factory hand and thumb warmers on my polaris, just plug and play, a necessity for the plowing i do with it.
