Heated Grips or Heated Gloves?

Fitted oxford muffs and heated grips recently , had an issue with the muffs at first though . wilst riding home one night pulled the clutch and found the bike locked up on the front ,the muff on the right had been holding the brake lever on at speed and fried my brake oil locking the front up !!!!!!!!! ive since fitted a bar to the bar end to hold them off . just a word of caution if fitting theese muff's but they seem to be doing a fine job now !!

The muffs don't look so bad. I was at work so I wasn't able to see the picture. I had a setup like that on a previous bike with heated grips. I didn't even need to wear gloves it would be so toasty :) and that is when I lived in Jersey and still road all year long.
 
Quick update here, I got the Rev'it Alaska gloves and even with heated grips the top of my hands were still cold. Even though the bottom were burning. I think I probably need heated gloves. That would also work great because I need to use that throttle lock, after the Vegas trip I understood that I really need it.
