So.. does anyone here have heated grips on their GS? I'm having some serious problems with hand chilling this winter, and I think the grips would be a good upgrade.
My only concern is weather or not the GS's charging system will handle them... and of course weather anyone makes a kit for the GS. I'd prefer a nice grip-replacement type unit, rather than heating elements installed into the stock grips....but I'm not having any luck finding any.
I'd also, at some point, like to install a set of aftermarket lights in place of the stock 7" unit... and once again, dont want a drain on the charging system. Can the GS handle this?
Yeah, lots of people here use 'em. I'm going to buy some so if anyone wants to shout out some good brands/models I'm-a-listenin'.
For a cool diagram (and other info) by richard, see the heat grip questions (http://gstwins.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=8065) thread.
Thanks for the info Kerry.
I tihnk I'm going to order up a set of those this weekend. :-)
get the dual stars instead of the aerostich (kimpex) models. They're better. I have the aerostitch and just installed them on my 600rr.
When I had the gs I ran a heated vest without any problems electrically.
