Can ya do a video on how hot the heated grips get from the lowest to the highest setting? Not sure how you would do that. Maybe lay a thermometer on the grip? Just a suggestion. Thanks.

Thanks Scott for watching and for the suggestion. I'll will think about that. They have a heat setting range from 1 to 6. The highest I have ever put mine to is 3...and that is while wearing leather gloves. Any higher than three would be way too hot. After getting off the bike with grips on, they are very warm to touch for some time to the bare hand. 👊✌️👍

It is a lot easier then at the Street/Ultra ones. There you have to take of the front piece of the fairing. Then loosen the 4 bolts and tilt the whole mainfairing forwards to get at the hole in the handlebar. Connections are the same indeed.

Great video. The only thing I worry about, is the circuit protection on that harness you used. Heated grips will pull more amps than an accessory light circuit, which is supposedly what that harness is for. This may be the reason Harley tells us to purchase the harness with these heated grips. I’ve installed them the way you instructed and they work. But, I may go ahead and utilize the harness I purchased per the instructions just to be safe.

I had them do the grips when they did the 12" bars on my '20 Trike. My grips are on in Acc and Ign. Did the dealer use the wrong connector? Haven't opened the fairing up yet to check color codes. I was thinking about adding a relay powered by the Ign. tap so the grips would only be on with the bike running. If I can find a Ign. only plug. Made the mistake of checking the GPS on the side of the road with the bike in Acc. and the grips on. Wakes ya up fast when you grab the grips with no gloves on even set at 3.

@HDVIBE 11 ай бұрын
Thanks for watching and commenting. To be honest, I'm not sure if mine heat while in Acc. Mode. I always turn them off just before shutting the bike down or right after shutting it down. I will also only turn them on when the bike is running so all the power is going to the starter to crank the bike over. If the dealer installed them, my guess is they used the same plugs I showed in the video. Thanks for your support and ride safe. 👊✌️👍

@@HDVIBE I just tore into the wiring. Apparently around '18 HD requires power to come from the Acc. plug under the right side cover along with an extra 3 wire harness goes under the tank to the plug. You have to splice another harness to the plug that goes directly to the battery. When the key is on there is power available in Acc or Ign. I'm gonna add a relay so it's only powered with the key set for Ign. BTW the heated grip plug is still there under the fairing. HD just thought lets make it harder and cost more.

I tried to get the trimmer line through my 14 inch bars with no luck. Did you tape the ends of the grip to the trimmer wire and feed both through at the same time? I simply tried the trimmer line on its own but it keeps coiling and getting obstructed by the black harness already running through my bars. Any tips?
@HDVIBE
@HDVIBE Жыл бұрын
Mine were going through the stock bars and had no problem. I would suggest taping the connectors to the trimmer line a bit offset so you can get bend in between the connectors as it moves through the bars. I did put these grips on a friend's bike with some 14 inch bars and it was a bit more challenging. We actually used two lengths of trimmer line to feed the two connectors through even more offset. It was tricky but we got it through. Also make sure to use duck tape on the very end of the connector to the trimmer line to get a stronger bond so you can pull a bit harder without the tape slipping off. Hopefully these suggestions will help you out. If you are already a subscriber...thank you. If you haven't yet subscribed I'd be honored if you'd consider doing so.

Having heated grips is a game changer for riding in cold temps. I got spoiled by having Kahuna Heated Grips on the CVO, so I decided it was time to install a set of Harley Heated Grips on the Road Glide Special. Watch and learn step by step how to install heated grips on a touring bike and save 3 hours of shop labor at $150/ hour. Thanks for watching and if you find value in this content consider giving it a like, sharing it with friends, save it for future reference and subscribe if you haven't done so already.
