World Vintage Motorcycle Sales Co. Hippo Hands are priced from $59.95 US and up.
Home of the Real Hippo Hands (TM)
We will be closed between February 11th and Feb 22nd, 2010.
Please follow the links on the left side bar to the appropriate page for your bike make and model. If you have any problems locating your bike model (there are thousands out there, and we couldn't possibly hope to cover all of them, ever), please: Hippo Hands on a Harley Davidson
When placing your order, please make sure to tell us the year, make and model of the bike or scooter that the Hippo Hands are being purchased are for.
PLEASE NOTE: Although we are aware that it may cost us some sales, we need to point out to our customers BEFORE they order, that if no significant wind protection exists on the bike, blowback against the levers is a strong possibility; the need for some sort of metal brackets or small inexpensive brush guards should be considered when purchasing Hippo Hands, in order to prevent this from happening. In any case, we suggest that you try them on, and if there's an issue with blowback, you obtain simple, small brush guards that clamp quickly to the handlebars, available on the Internet for around $40 or less a pair.
"Hippo Hands" Muffs Description: Please read the customers' feedback on my "Testimonials" page. The exterior of the "muffs" is made out of heavy weight polyurethane-coated Cordura-like black nylon material, for water repellency. The interior consists of heavy weight black polyester arctic fleece for warmth, plus a plastic stiffener used in between the two layers, to help the muffs retain their shape, and to allow for rapid insertion of the arm while riding the bike. With this combination of materials, we have achieved a fairly high degree of water repellency, wind protection, and decent appearance. The reason Hippo Hands work well, is that they create a zone of quiet air around your hands, therefore preventing unnecessary loss of precious heat in cold weather. Most Hippo Hands users report amazing results, even with lighter weight gloves, at temperatures that previously required the heaviest winter gloves available, to be able to ride for any length of time. You'll forget to turn on your electric grips, unless you're riding in sub-freezing temperatures!!! Some Harley Davidson motorcycles have uniquely placed turn signals located on the handlebars, as well as throttle cables that come out at 90 degrees' angle to the handlebar, which necessitated additional design features on their Hippo Hands. We don't make such claims as "Police Approved", which other competitors make in their websites, but we have sold them individually to many Police Officers across the country, mostly from Oregon and Washington State, so you're bound to see them on many motorbikes in the West Coast.
