I have a set of these and they work pretty good. Keeps my stuff dry, plenty of room, I can easily take them off my bike if I need to.

UPDATE: I've been running the bike with just heated gloves and the jacket liner. So something like 90 watts. No drain so far but I literally can't add any additional draw. At night the headlights will pulse slightly if I'm drawing too much, like if I turn on the brights or turn signals. Luckily...

I was expecting more headroom than that. Just for anyone else that may be looking, here is the info I found: Stator makes 310 watts Headlights consume: 55w low/120w high beam License Plate Light: 5w Each turn signal pulls 21w, plus maybe 4w for the relay? Running lights pull 5w each, or 10 all...

No dual headlight mod but I do usually ride with my brights on unless its dark out. So that saves me 65w right there. My gloves keep my hands warm but the grips help get me some heat from the inside of my hand where there doesn't seem to be any glove heat. Does anyone know offhand how much power...

Finally got some heated gloves to keep me riding into the winter and today was the first sub 40F weather so I had my heated jacket, gloves and grips going. Seems like after I stopped for gas my bike was a little sluggish to start and my grips wouldn't turn on due to the battery being near dead...

It sounds similar to what my bike was doing. I had pulled the tank to check the air filter, then went ahead and pulled the intake to adjust and lube the clutch. When I put it back together I forgot to tighten the intake boots. Same throttle response as in your video. Probably sucking air. Check...

May as well breathe some life into this thread. Just got my FZ6 in Feb. Out of Des Moines!

I think, since they are rubber cushioned, they will have a little play. This is for comfort and to reduce vibration.
