Thanks Tocsik, I got really lucky with those bags!
Tested the bike's suspension with a 15kg bag of pellets on the rack. Sadly rear tire hits on the fender on bigger bumps so i need longer shocks, no way around it.
Also tested the heated grips... First time i had such thing on a bike and it's a really wonderful feeling. First time I had numb hands that are also warm!
In case someone is interested making heated grips themselves:
- about 1m length of resistance wire (constantan wire, styrofoam cutting wire etc) per grip. Wire is 12ohm per meter, so 1 grip is 12ohms, taking about 1A, so about 12-14W
- wrapped textile backed insulator tape on the handles, wrapped the 1m wire so that the ends are next to each other at the inner end of the grip. (so a long U loop) Secured the end of the long U-loop with a bit of tape.
- Soldered some not too thick wires to them and fixed it with a zip-tie.
- used 50mm shrink tube and a gas burner to have a rubbery surface that fixes the heating wires.
- got a switch for it (only ON-OFF but a lower setting IS useful. After 10kms I turned it off as it was becoming too hot) The switch got fixed under the console on the left.
- power is taken from the position light circuit through a 5A breaker. This way I won't leave it on by mistake after turning off ignition. This was just simple for me as I had free connections for the taillight as I no longer have a separate numberplate light.
Not too pretty but works.
Considering that such stuff from Oxford is like 50 usd, you might not want to play with it, but the total cost for me was about 15usd and I have still enough wire and heatshrink tube left for 3 bikes.
