I'm sure this has been done a thousand times before, but I would like to contribute a bit so here it goes - I think :confused :D
Quality wise Oxford has always been my choice when it came to heated grips, but I have never been to keen on the thermostat/controller unit.
So I'm gonna try these Koso's out. Please let me know if anyone here has experience - good or bad - with them.

Grips and control unit fitted - no screaming or use of hammers so far :D

Trying to place the fusebox an accesible place

Wire extensions sorted

All done - and they actually work. Might reward myself with a chilled beverage :beer:

Is there an inline fuse with this system?

They look really neat!
Better than the Oxfords in my opinion. I like the way the controller is hidden in the loom and the switch is integrated into the grip.
I've just had a look at the specs and I see they come with an inline fuse, auto shut off much the same as the oxfords. If they last as well I think Oxford will have some competition the next time I need a pair :D
