Has anyone try-ed to put hand warmers on a Polaris 120?I cant believe that they don't come with a sled that is for kids.I would like to install a set but I don't know if the electrical system would handle the load.

You kid stays on the sled long enought for his/her hands to get cold, thats incredible. I'm lucky if they stay on for more then 10 minutes. I guess I need a bigger back yard.

In theory they will work, but I doubt the lighting system has enough wattage to run them. Better gloves, or bar mitts help. Used to take my boy for 20-30 mile rides on the trails around here, (just take extra fuel) With a few mods the sled would go a reasonable speed fot the trail. HIs hands would be fine for the trips.

120 hot grips

Has anyone try-ed to put hand warmers on a Polaris 120?I cant believe that they don't come with a sled that is for kids.I would like to install a set but I don't know if the electrical system would handle the load.

My daughter has a 2008 POLARIS 120.

I have the hot grips here, the same ones that come on my DRAGON, they're 4" wide (same as the stock 120) along with some 45* hooks, just haven't had time to do it, but will do soon.

The aftermarket hot grips are 5" wide.

I figure that worst case scenario I'll unplug the headlight and/or add a 12 volt battery.

I posted that same question on H.C.S., no response at all.

I have 2 - 120's for the kids. I like your idea and have thrown around the idea of trying to retro fit also. Please post any of your trial and errors and pics.

These may be a possibility for the 120?

I wouldn't recommend any use of a handlebar mit or gauntlet-if the child were to fall off, wouldn't want them caught on the bars.

Good gloves or mittens would be the 1st choice.

I have those, they're the same as the newer POLARIS ones that I got from the dealer for the DRAGON application (at more $$$ of course)

Will be installing those shortly
