Well worth it, get the best you can afford as they can be bulky and feel a little odd compared to normal grips. Get them wired so they go off when then bike is turned off (know of people who have killed there battery by leaving them on) also worth buying a trickle charger to keep the battery topped up |

Get Oxford sport grips,they are better than factory fitted ones.
No problem wiring them,Neg to battery.live[red] to rear brake light[live wire]then it will work off the ignition switch.
I have them on my Vmax,very good,hope this helps. |

Just bought an fjr with factory heated grips. Been caught out in the snow twice now and they helped keep it fun. Considering buying the Oxford ones for my other bikes now I know what difference they make.
But it will be warm soon!!!!!!!!!! |

they can take the edge off, but you need thin then thick gloves anyways when its cold enough to warrant using grips, just make sure you have a good battery, as just like alarms they can flatten batteries.
Quite nice on the ride home on a summer evening unzip jacket a bit and just warm ya hands a wee bit |
