Default Airflow heated grip review

This post is for a positive review of these grips. They work awesome. My opinion is most people seem to review things only to bitch when they don't work out. Ive used them for 1 season so far. A setting of 2 is comfortable most the time. Ive had them up to 6 when wearing thicker leather riding gloves.
The grips themselves are comfortable. The crosshatch pattern allows better airflow so your hands don't sweat as much,and these don't seem to get " sticky" as most grips seem to do. The contoured design makes for a comfortable feel.

Did you have the factory style heated grips prior?
If so, was it a straight swap with the wiring?

i did not have any grips at all. The street glide does not come with grips. I will never go without now.
As far as i know, it would be a direct swap.

Your street glide came with just bare handlebars? How did you operate the throttle?

I paid dearly for mine, I'm sure. That was probably in that dealer prep or one of those other fine print figures. But I bought a Limited so it may have come with them included in the price. Who knows?

Well, all I know is now that I look back, I want to be in the middle of Sar Mic's avatar photo. But that may be the happy hour talking. (Don't tell the OL)
