  • grip heaters

    I love my Symtec grip heaters on my Honda. Can the XS electrics handle them also? Cheap, easy and effective to keep our hands comfy..

    A few folks use them. Cobia is selling a set now in this thread. I would imagine that if you trim the voltage down with LEDs and such, you could get away with them.

            Yup... unfortuanitly. The right one heated up the grip glue so much that it came loose and eventually pulled the wire off. Plus the were on my old chrome daytona bars. I now have. Renthal bars. Haven't bothered to buy more yet.
