Re: Warm grips
has anyone wired these into the ignition? mine are directly wired to the battery but i keep running the battery down, and now ive dropped my bike trying to jump start it i think i should wire themup properly!! i have been told that if you splice them into say the headlight it will hamper the performance of the light..?
any advice is appriciated thanks Toby |

Re: Warm grips
You want to relay them off another system- headlight or sidelight is ideal. Don't just wire it straight into another part of the wiring loom (if you must, the horn + is suitable, but it's better to put it on its own loop.

Re: Warm grips
Maplins is your best bet. Or Halfords will have them, by the lights and horns, but the relay they usually stock is really unreliable.
