i've got a little extra cash left from christmas to spend on motorcycle farkles. my fingers are getting cold below 30 degrees with no heated anything. and since i'm not rich, i'm choosing between these two:
the koso heated grips

or the dual star heated grip kit
http://www.dual-star.com/index2/Rider/heated_grip_kit1.htm
the koso grips look easier to install and able to be transferred to another bike should i need to. i've heard the dual star grip kits tearing after a year or two or use. i also don't currently have stock (or BMW) grips. some type of very squishy rubbery grips that aren't exactly large enough to make it all the way to the end weights. they are okay, but i have no qualms about getting rid of them.
so which kit is better? has anyone found the koso's to be uncomfortable on the hands? do they heat up as well as the dual stars?
