Heated grips

Has anyone fitted these to their NC30? If so, how easy are they to wire in and have you got a handy how to guide.

I fitted the R&G heated grips to my NC30, the throttle grip was too long and got stuck on the bar end every time I let the throttle open so I had to trim the end off. I've just recently taken them off as they were a waste of time, hardly got luke warm at max setting. I'd say get some warmer gloves :lol:

I have Oxford heated grips and they came already fitted so cannot comment on fitting....however, no problems what so ever in using them.
On cold (but dry :whistle: ) days they take the edge off and make riding in the cold more enjoyable, it does make quite a difference.

I've been thinking about getting some heated gloves, but not sure the NC30 electrical system could cope with the extra load?

How about battery operated gloves?

4/5 amps extra load for heated grips should be no trouble to an NC30 electrical system provided it is in good condition.
