Has anyone fitted Koso heated grips with the built in controller, they look like a good alternative to the unobtainable Husky oem ones. Only thing that is better with the oem heated grips is they come ready mounted to the throttle tube and don’t require glueing, on Either side. I noticed today that the heated grip power connector is visible just behind the steering head, so easy to get to .

I just installed them the other day. I used the extra power wires that are under the passenger seat.

Were they an easy fit, or did you find the throttle side difficult to get on? Interested to hear your comments on how warm they get, plus some photos please. 👍

Throttle side went on fairly easy. Clutch side was nearly impossible to get on. I even sanded the handlebars before trying. It is actually rotated more downward than I like but I couldn't get it to rotate anymore. I'm hoping a hot day in the sun will allow me to correct it.

I haven't rode the bike since installing them. I did test them and they get warm but I have no idea how hot they will get. The power wire seems pretty small so I'm not sure how hot they will get.

Interesting that you struggled with the clutch side, I’d have thought It would be the throttle side that would’ve been more difficult. I’m in no rush, not much need for them at the moment, so will see what’s at the Adv bike rider show in June.

I was in a rush before a trip to fit heated grips so I went with these from Amazon. Originally I had only intended to use them for this trip then I was planning on replacing them with the OEM set it an after market kit. But I think I will leave this kit on. The hi setting is super hot which was great for the North. The low setting is plenty warm for most uses. I installed the kit then wrapped the grips in some tape intended for a tennis racquet. I also like the slightly larger circumference of the grips now too.

Not the prettiest but inexpensive and worries great.

Red wire is power for the grips.

Has anyone installed OEM HGrips as of yet? I just received mine and cannot locate the receiving plug on the bike. The manual is only for the KTM 890 ADV and shows its within the frame. \When I installed them on my 890 Duke the plug was under the headlamp. . I'd prefer to not have to removes the lamp when its under the tank or vice versa.

Plug is in between the frame near the headstock. Shouldn’t have to remove anything just fish it out.

yeah thanks, I literally needed a lighted camera probe to locate it. The connector was hanging down behind the radiator and was a royal pain to dig it out.

I agree it was a pain to find it. I did get a better angle on seeing it after removing the right side fairing. Got a hook on it and gently pulled it down below the frame and connected it and shoved it back in place. Everything else was easy and straightforward.
