Not that I am using the bike currently. With all the salt on the road and lack of daylight its tucked up in the garage. However I did decide to add some heated grips and an accessory plug. The accessory plug was easy. There are some Triumph instructions on the web for this and its easy to do. Hardest part is locating the power cable. You have to take two bolts out from the rear of the tank and fish it out from the harness then drop it down between the throttle bodies. The bracket bolts on above the clutch cover behind the cylinders. There are two plugs in the bolt holes. I am using it as a charge point for my trickle charger with a powerlett connector i picked up from Amazon.
The heated grips are also pretty straightforward though I can't find any Bobber specific instructions and annoyingly there are none included. So far I have only done the clutch side. The hardest part was getting the old grip off. I used the compressed air trick but I have seen people use WD40 its on pretty tight but no glue I could see. The power wire in the new grip feeds up through the bar and you fish it out by the switchgear which has the connector in place. All in all a pretty simple job. I will tackle the throttle side tomorrow.
