I rode today with the shield all the way up. My shocks are at Level 5 and my tire pressure at 17. Top items on my list are Ron's bar and the Elkas. I still can't believe that windshield. Awesome!

I agree as well. Heated hand grips are wonderful. I rode home tonight from work 35 miles 43 degrees and was amazed at how I didn't freeze. I never rode my old VTX under 50 degrees. I LOVE that. This will extend my riding season and sure happy about that.
As a mature, experienced 2 wheel rider I don't quite know what to make of the grips. To me at low they're hot. I ran them for a little while but it will have to be snowing for me to run them full time. I can't ever imagine turning them on high. What am I going to do with my insulated gauntlets

Living in North Eastern Vermont, where the temps do fall to freezing this time of year, I have always appreciated having heated grips. Snowmobilers like myself have used them for years on sleds and I wouldn't want to ride without them. I installed Symtec heated grips on my honda ST1300 when I had that bike. On my RS Spyder I installed these Oxford heated grips and can honestly say they work great! I find this product to be of real good quality. The installation was easy and has a small control box with four temp settings with an led display, color coded to a specific heat setting. You can't beat this product for the price IMHO.

They're pretty hot to me, too...especially with thin gloves. I usually find myself cycling them on and off. Off is too cold, but low is too hot. Your opinion seems pretty normal to me.

Love the grips. Excellent product. Grips were tight, and installation was simple. Used the 12V hook up so I don't drain battery. I was reading the forums and the information was great. Thanks for the thread.
Colder on the left side because the handlebar which is steel acts as a heat sink whereas there
is no metal beneath the twist grip, just a plastic sleeve. HTH
