So I have the Buell GPS and I am wanting to run the stock heated hand grips on it as well, but I am curious dont they both tap into the same circuit? If thats the case, anyone know if that would overload it if I did run both?

Are there any other options if that doesn't work?

lol overload it... You obviously haven't seen my bike : )

Grips, GPS, Fog lights, Electric Cooler, heated suit, and cell phone charger.

My new bike is Grips, GPS, Fog Lights, Veypor VR2, heated suit, with more to come.

Your Gps should only draw a couple of tenth of an amp....I wouldn't think it is a problem. Just make sure your not on the switched side of the circuit when you tie in.

Power
Input: 5 Vdc
Usage: 6 watts maximum @ 13.8 Vdc


From the garmin site....that is less than half an amp. should be fine.

Thanks for the info guys.

Hey Froggy
I was told that my package is waiting for me, unfortunately due to the unfortunate events with the house situation it will be a little while before I can get the gear. Thanks for sending everything.

The grips come with specific instructions for those who have the GPS. It is not a problem. Farkle away!
