Griso heated grip help please
« on: February 07, 2019, 07:55:07 AM »
From what I can tell there is no heated grip set from Guzzi specifically for the Griso. Will Guzzi part #977711 heated grip set work on a 2017 Griso? This set is for an 8V Norge or 1100 Breva. I have searched this forum and Grisology to no avail.
I could use Oxford Sport heated grips (I believe) but that means a controller mounted to the bars. I would rather use the button already on the bike, it is located under the high-beam flasher, the same spot as the heated grip controller on my 2007 Norge. I also want to put Stelvio handguards on at the same time, not sure if that complicates anything. Oh the joys of having Raynaud's Syndrome.....

Before you buy said grips that plug in find the plugs under tank. If it was made to work there should be plugs wrapped up and tucked in place somewhere under tank. Big area above alternator or maybe behind wings on each side by coils or horns.

I just searched over on the Ghetto and found nothing about stock grips only aftermarket. It may not have plugs and not be programed in the dash. I haven't done heated grips on a Griso. I'm sure someone on here knows.

I believe the button you're referring to is actually to operate the dash, not heated grips.

Yep, that's the dash mode button. A look at the wiring diagram for the Griso 1100 reveals no provision for heated hand grips, unlike the Breva 1100 diagram.

No, that button is already assigned to toggling through the various options when the three-position switch is selected to "mode".

Thanks all, sounds like aftermarket is needed.

After market is needed. Closed ended if maintaining oem mirrors, open ended (if made) using bar end mirrors.
OR what's easier and less visual external wiring are heated gloves.

Thanks again to all who responded. Going with Stelvio guards and Oxford Sport grips. Will report back .
The dealer had a good price on the Griso but knows little about the bikes they sell.

The way I've done it on mine is with factory grips and an Oxford controller. They work, but only OK, not brilliantly.

The reason I opted for that set up is that the Oxford grips are much fatter and I hate fat grips.

As stated above the Griso isn't wired for grips ex-factory.

You must have very sensitive hands, Pete.  I measured the Oxfords on my Griso as 36mm dia, the factory grips on my 1200 Sport as 34 mm.

They feel both the same to me.  But I somehow remember there is an option for fatter grips on the Oxfords.  Perhaps you ended up with those.
