Got my grips and jacket liner stuff installed. My bikes a little dirty so never mind the dirt.
The grips are called Hot Grips:
I really like these because the are bigger than most grips. I have long fingers and having something a little more substantial to wrap them around feels great:
Plus the extra thickness provide a good bit more cushion.
I use a Gerbing's heated jacket liner. I installed the surface mount for the liner here:
With a right angle cord, it makes for super easy access while on or off the bike:
For controllers, I went variable. Gerbing's single portable controller for the jacket liner and the Warm-and-Safe Heat-Troller for the grips. They are mounted under the instrument panel with double sided foam tape:
Wires are routed under the front cowl and lead to my power distribution block located in the left fairing pocket:
As far as cost go, here's a list (all in USD):
Hot Grips $110.99
Heat-Troller $79.95
Gerbing's panel mount kit $36.95
Gerbing's portable controller $69.95
Gerbing's heated jacket liner $219.95
Tested everything out yesterday on my way home from work. Temperatures were in the low 40's (Fahrenheit) and everything works great.
