One of my hot grips quite working. Any recommendations on replacecments?
 

A new one.........
Just kidding I put Rsi on mine when I first got it and been working great .... I also put ski doo cork under them and wired blue/white not how Rsi said....I haven't had a problem yet......

Or hook up Rsi way and put the yamaheater on..........
 
Ok here is the best secret I can give you for your grips. Find a set of 2006 Apex bars with the grips still installed from guys selling parts on this site or flea bay. They have to be 06. Swap out your bars on the Nytro and hook up the wires. I forget if they plug right in or you may have to strip, solder, and tape, very easy to do but I thought they pugged right in. The grips are a little beefier and have a nicer feel in my opinion. The best part? I run them on 1 or 2 and they stay toasty, If my hands get cold 3-4 bars and they are hot, 5-6 bars and you have curling irons. :) Tested to 25 below! No gauntlets and no Yamaheater. I am just using the Dumbo ears on my factory defectors but wouldn't need them. This was the first thing I did when my 09 XTX had 20 miles on it after the stock grip experience. Try it and I am sure you will be glad you did. I have around 6000 miles and am happy I have toasty hands for around $75.00. Best mod I can suggest as well as my Limiter strap fix which can be found on this forum as well. Good luck and let us know if you go this route and how you like it. You won't be dissapointed.
