Heated Grips ?

The Symtec's come with wiring, I just wanted the grips on a switched relay, so you don't kill your battery by accidentally leaing the grips on. Ron

 

I have heated grips on my Suzuki gs500 and the dealer wired them into the ignition so when the ignition is off they are off also. I assumed that is how they would be wired on installation not right to the battery.

I was just not sure if the Ventures had the power out-put to handle the grips... add in a heated vest or two..... just curious is all.

You could wire them directly, they do draw some current so I think wiring them directly to the battery would be better. Mine are wired to the accessory plug in the fairing which is switched by the ignition, but the draw there is only to open the relay to the battery.

I have a Kuryakyn LED ampmeter to monitor current draw. I can run the grips, my passing lamps and my vest without discharge. I'd highly recommend one of the for 35.00 they cost. Ron
