Try Daytona
Hi, I fitted Daytona Heated Grips and they work very nicely. The control unit is simple "Off", "Start" and "On" but the wiring and grips, etc are very good quality and many riders recommended them. I was advised to steer clear of ones that have digital or multistep readings as these can malfunction. Anyway I've done 2k at least with these grips so far and the warmth generated from them is very impressive and consistent.

I had Oxford heated grips fitted on my old bike and loved them so much I fitted them to this bike. Easy to install. Hardest bit is taking the tank off to run the wiring and they never provide enough cable ties in the kit. Another good thing is they don't cost $400. The grips are thicker than standard grips.
I have the pads that go under the stock grips with a 3 position switch(start/stop/on) and they work well. I found the aftermarket heated grips are a but firmer than the stock ones and the instalation is a lot more stealth with the pads under the stock grips. I've used them for 2 winters and so far they are stil going strong.
Yamaha heated grips
Installed Yamaha Heated grips... working ever so well for the last few months
.
Didn't take the tank off. Just passed the wires in the clearance between tank and frame. Used Carburettor cleaning spray to dissolve the glue - standard grips came out so easily . Installation was quite easy and colour coded wires matched with the bike's wring loom.

I've done the same but just remember, snowmobile gloves won't protect you much if you crash.

I have always used Symtec heated grips, used them on both on and off road bikes(you can wear thinner gloves on off road bikes) and never had any problems easy to fit and cheap plus the owner at winding roads is very helpful

Lee Parks Grip Warmers
I've got these installed under the the stock oem grips. Took about 2 hours. Wired into the ignition, if the key is on so are they. The Hi/Lo Toggle switch is located on the left side right next to the fork leg. These are the only grip warmers I've ever had, so I have nothing else to compare them to. They get pretty toasty. The throttle hand does tend to get slightly warmer than the left hand, (could just be my better grip on that side?), but I'm told that's 'normal'? I've ridden in temps of the high 30's and low 40's with them and bounce the switch back and forth between high and low without any complaints. High is pretty toasty if you leave it on for a long time. I'll never have a bike without them again.

Was just looking at getting those. But not sure if the fancy on-bar LED switch setup is worth it or just go basic and hide the switch. Which one did you go with?
