[QUOTE="ionbeam, post: 1157432, member: 277"] The Yamaha OEM heated grips and heat controller are expensive if you buy them new, but the wiring harness is already in place for them in the FJR. Everything just plugs in and works. If you can find a set of grips and heat controller that are used and get them for a good price this is the way to go. I have had heat tapes, Yamaha aftermarket grips (not like the OEM Gen II grips) and several other kits on my bike and have found the Oxford grips to be the best aftermarket kit. The grips get plenty hot for New England riding below 25º F and heat faster than any other grips or tapes I have used. The minor down sides to this kit are: the grips are hard (like all heated grips), the grips are a bit short so there is a gap between the grips and the switch pods and the LEDs on the heat controller are tiny and hard to see in daylight unless you are looking directly at them. If you can remove dash panels and do minor wiring the Oxfords are probably the way to go. [/QUOTE]
