Gents,
Installed a set of heated grips on my 2000 Magnum 325 4x4. This is not the complete grip type but the type that has the element you wrap around the handle bars and then re-install your original grips back over them. They came with an older style glass inline fuse so I had swapped that out for a blade type. My rides are never longer than 20-30 mins and the grips heat up just fine, never need hi, just use low, and some times the fuse will blow. I have them wired to 12v off the key. I dont think a 25 amp fuse is even necessary I was thinking 15 should have been fine but Im eating 25s. Is it the type of grip that has these problems or should I get my 12v from a different source? Any thought appreciated. Thx , Cory.
