Rob, I did on the Aprilia for ~5 months
Worked fine/great. Never had any problems, but don't have anything to compare them to as they are the only ones I've ever used.

Very well made and easy to use.  Much nicer than the tyre sox and chicken hawks some team mates of mine used.  I used mine for an entire season then sold them to a fellow racer for almost as much as I paid for them.  They looked like new and worked perfectly after a full season of use.  I'd say they are one of the best tire warmers on the market and now Baker/woodcraft offers the temperature controller that works with the Tire Bakers for the high-end user/race team.

I got mine used (thanks again, Monte!!!!) - they definitely get the job done!  No complaints at all.
CCS AM 815... or was that 158?

I have had 4 sets now. I used to buy a new color everytime I changed the color of my bike. I am staying with black this time (I think).
All of the sets ive used I have never had a problem. As long as you unplug them after you take them off they will last for a long time.
I will say that Brian Baker might want to cut back on the gas station hot dogs, cookies, chips,etc. Let's just say a little excersize wouldn't hurt. Ya know, the kids a little big in the can!

I've used them the last two season without any problems.  

I've got an extra set that has hardly been used at all for sale.  Call if you're interested.

require lots-o-heat...they work just fine for me.

Thanks guys!

I have been racing since 2000...the last two years in AZ.  I personally have never used warmers and have made fun of the gys that did! :o  I have personally been irritated at the loud racket that the generators make as most people I know buy the cheap-a$$ ones!  However, after a cold tire-first lap crash this past weekend on Michelin slicks...I guess I will have to reconsider!  I think I will go with the Bakers as they require less watts than most (800 for the two wheels) and I can get away with the quiet Honda EU1000.

Thanks again!

That's the setup I ran, also was able to power 2 fans at the same time.
