Was just chatting to the dealer about getting some heated grips fitted to the 2015 VCO SG and he siad they can't be internally wired through the bars.

Has anybody fitted / had the fitted to the current CVO SG and been able to get the wires through the bars?

I like heated grips as I hate bulky gloves but like to ride all weathers and to adjust for big fluctuations in temperature whilst out on the road - this isn't a deal breaker but I'm hoping there is a solution.

Yes they can be wired internally.  I can think of at least a couple people who have posted that they had them installed and wired internally on a 2015 SESG around here, try doing a search.

Yeah it can be done, the CVO limited has them fitted stock from factory, so not a problem.
I am having them fitted to my 2015 Cvo streety next week, however I am getting the slipstream ones as I can't stand the shape and feel of the triangular "cheese grater" feel grips the stock bike comes with also the stock grips don't even match the footboards.

Absulutley you can. I installed them using the same grips that are found in the Limited  CVO.  It's truely a very easy project.

I fitted Heat Demons to my 14 SERK and wired them internally no problem.

I have the slipstream heated grips on mine and wired internally with Yaffe Monkey bars. If all the wires will fit through the sharp corner of these bars you can install them on any of the other bars. IMHO

Defiantly can. I did the install myself with factory CVO grips for a SG limited. Plug and play. You do have to feed a wire through the handlebars on one side only. You have to by careful upon reassembly. I had a little trouble with the brake light switch pinched (constantly on). Had to disassemble /reassemble things. The grips have been working perfectly ever since.

Thanks for the replies.   So not impossible,  the dealer just didn't fancy trying it.  Which is fine,  Ill just do it myself.

Cheers.
