Errr, this is where my lack of electrical knowledge is going to show.
The tail light has a very tiny wire and I would presume a very low draw since it is only a small bulb.
My heated jacket has a thicker wire coming off the battery (I think) because it has a far greater draw.
A wild @$$ guess believes that if you try powering the heated grips through the tiny little tail light wire, you will end up blowing the fuse for the tail lights along with whatever else gets damaged when something draws too much power for what the wire was designed for.
