    Hot Grips not available.

    Be careful with the G2 sleeve and using these as it caused me a bit of heartburn. The G2 sleeve has knurling that has sharp edges. Either wrap it well with electrical tape or use the Dual Star heat shrink for protection.

    Do they play well together? G2 throttle tube and Dual Star heated grips

    You were clear but I wasn't as clear on my reply. :( What I was trying to say was if they are giving you the option to get two hotter grips, I'd do that. I wasn't given the option and went with the clutch and throttle grips. I did use the heat shrink on the clutch side. Both sides get...

    Do they play well together? G2 throttle tube and Dual Star heated grips

    With the 07 you should have plenty of electrical capacity to run both unless you're riding two up and using lots of electrical liners, pants, and/or socks. I use the Heat Troller with them to give me much more then a Hi/Low switch can. I'm an advocate for as much heat as you can get if you can...

    Do they play well together? G2 throttle tube and Dual Star heated grips

    It was tight but I used the original grips for left and right. I'm sure it would be much easier to use throttle grips on both sides if you want. I used hair spray and elbow grease. I didn't feel the right side with the G2 tube was enough of a heat sink to rob a significant amount of heat. I...

    Do they play well together? G2 throttle tube and Dual Star heated grips

    I used the Dual Star heat shrink on the clutch side and the tape on the throttle. I did the spring release as well and am very happy with things.

    Do they play well together? G2 throttle tube and Dual Star heated grips

    I have this exact setup. I did have an issue though. With the knurled surface of the G2 tube it rubbed my Dual Star raw. I wrapped a few turns of the G2 tube with electrical tape and haven't had an issue since. If you have a multimeter, you can see the ohm measurements you should have on the...

    heated clothing/powerlet kits

    Personally I like having both. I have two permanent mounts in Panel A, one is for the heated grips. The other, I installed the rearset dual port Powerlet and the other permanent mount is for one of these ports for my liner. The remaining port I have is for my wife and I have the portable...

    MPG

    When I got my 07 I did a -burn in- run and wrote up a little ride report. Lake Michigan 1000 I averaged 48.4 which includes city, construction and mostly open 2 lane highway. Coming off both a CBR1000 and ElectraGlide, it's oh so nice to have a long range bike. Tommy
