Yeah I have a similar type of fuseblock on my DL1000 from Eastern Beaver. He makes top quality stuff. http://easternbeaver.com/
Yep, I saw that, then I was thinking, well, that's not more than $15 in parts if I build it one off...I ended up sitting on the idea too long and was leaving for a trip in 3 days, so I hit up my scrap box and radio shack for a couple extra pieces and put mine together. That fuzeblock is nice, but dang that was more than I wanted to spend to change my cell phone.
Heat wrapped the connector blocks, wired in the grip module thing , and put the covers on. Then finally went for my first ride... What an awesome bike! Abs works good too
Hi, I am thinking of ordering the original Husqvarna heated grips together with a new TR650 strada. Is there any one there can help me with Picture of the original heated grips and control unit. Where is the switch to control it placed? thanks! Jakob, Denmark
Sorry, I don't have a pic, but I have seen one fitted. The factory heated grips control unit mounts on the handle bar on a bracket of it's own (using the left hand mirror clamp bolts from memory. The mount is a piece of aluminium with a dial mounted on it. It looks quite tacky in my opinion and just sticks up without blending into the existing controls. On a Husqvarna website in the NL they're selling them for 343 Euros (about $500). That's an awful lot of money for what you get. The only advantage the factory heated grips have is they are probably a very easy install, because you won't have to do any of your own wiring. A few of us have bought cheap single cable 7/8" grips from Amazon/Ebay which were about $30/40 but now can find them on ebay for $9.99 http://www.ebay.com/itm/Motorcycle-...Bar-Hand-Grips-Honda-7-8-Warmer-/271234557634. They are a good fit on the TR650 and you can wire them up easily yourself in less than an hour. I installed them on my bike a few months ago and being winter here they have been getting a lot of use, work well, no problems encountered. On my other bike I have a set of CLS 'smart' heated grips which have a controller which automatically turns them on when the temperature drops below 15C and adjusts the amount of heat depending on the temperature. I thought they were expensive (they cost me only half the price of the 'dumb' Husqvarna headed grips).
Those that have installed the OEM grips, can you show me a picture of where they "plug in"? Or the install instructions. On my last bike I was able to directly wire them to this connection, which made for a clean install. Hoping to do the same this time around.
I don't have the factory grips, but there are two plugs that I know of that are unused on my bike. First one is in your headlight housing, you should find a plug there. I believe it is a 5v, but don't quote me on that. The second is on the right side of the bike just under the fairing and above the engine. That one is affirmatively a 12v.
Thanks, I'll do some looking around. The Accessory connector, if I am reading the electrical diagram right, is supposed to have a green/white and brown wire.
So based on this diagram pulled from another thread, the accessory plug on the right side under the fairing is the one. No if I can figure out how a green/blue and blue/white wire are supposed to correspond "Br" and "GrW" I'll be good to go. Might have to fire it up and see which one returns hot.
