    Heated grips

    I am thinking about putting on some heated grips. The dealer looked up some Ducati ones, and told me to look at after market ones. (Ducati wanted around $350 +) I was looking at what I would have to do to get to the battery to get the electrical for them. After reading all the problems with the body panels, I took another look to see if I could find another source to use. I then looked at the dash board power outlet. I have found a plug in unit with fuse protection and 2 wires with couplings to connect the heated grips to. Has anyone tried this? Also any suggestions on some good heated grips.

    If you look at the threads on here about satnav installation you will see there is a power supply under the panel to the left of the ignition you could possibly use.

    ...or you could buy a pair of RST Paragon heated gloves - nice and toasty, no assembly / wiring, transfer from bike to bike and, unlike grips,  you get the front of the fingers heated (plus they are a nice fit and comfy)

    Have the ducati heated grips.
    Buzzardbilly is right.
    Heated gloves are a better investment.
    The grips are a nice luxury for inbetween weather.
    Heated grips do little in cold weather.
    Only your palms get the heat, your hands still freeze.
