Has anyone used heated grips on a CG 125? My CG is the model with both electric start and kickstart. On this model, the lights and the ignition system are powered directly by the alternator, so it would be less of a worry if the battery became discharged. The battery powers the starter motor, pus indicators and brake light. This is probably true for many other 125 bikes, but of course, they are likely to be electric start only. one possibility would be to use LED daytime running lights powered from the battery, and use the headlamp supply for the heated grips. Has anyone used heated grips on a Honda CG 125?

i got some cheapo chinese ones years ago that were connected straight to the battery, never had any issues and they were hot as buggery.

I ran them on my copybike with a CG125-a-like engine and charging system (it would also kick and run with the main fuse blown), no problems.
