Heated grips on 2013/2014 RS-S

[RandyL]

BRP does not have a heated grip option listed in their accessories catalog for the 2013/2014 RS model. Does anyone know if the kit for the ST (p/n #219400356) will fit? I suspect they don't list it because the RS doesn't have that area below the handlebar stem for switches like the RT and ST, but if couldn't that switch be located somewhere up there with a bit of creativity? Also, does the RS have the wiring to plug the heated grips in?

Thanks in advance to anyone with knowledge on this! Thinking about pulling the trigger on an RS-S but now consider heated grips a "must have".

I will hit up BD our Pitbull shop foreman in the morning and ask him. I was curious about this as well and would like to have some on my RSS as well for winter riding.

I have aftermarket Oxford heated grips on my GS SM5. They work quite well.

I have BikeMaster Heated Grips ($50) on my GS and they are Very Good with 5 levels of heat BUT Their NOT as Good as the Heated grips on my RT So I would try for BRP ones if you can do it!!

I spent time driving both my '13 RS-S and my wife's '12 RT in a 45° downpour yesterday. Not surprisingly, I too would like to know about installing heated grips on my RS-S. I'd looked into aftermarket options previously, but if I have the option for OE parts, at least in the bars, I'd gladly put an aftermarket toggle switch somewhere.

It's easy just get the aftermarket membrain ones that look like a printed circuit board they are thin as a credit card ,work the stock grips off with a small solid rod and put the switch in the vent area beside the speedo cluster and $40 later heated grips
