Thanks for the video. Very useful! I’ll be installing a set in weeks ahead. I plan on using a relatively generous amount of glue so it doesn’t dry too quickly. As a side note, I doubt that heating the grips with hair dryer/heat gun would much to get them off. If so, they would get loose on their own when they are on.
Hello from the UK..have these on my 2018 Suzuki GSXS1000…wired them into the switched live connector already in place if you wanted the Suzuki grips. Work really well & look good to. Don’t get as hot as Oxford grips but still warm your hands great 👍 nice job
How did lining up the buttons on the grip with the blinker switch go? No accidental bumping the grip switch often? I'm doing mine tonight and wasn't sure if I should offset them a little
I haven’t removed the grips on my 2019 Tracer but almost every other bike I’ve had, I have been able to remove the grips with my air compressor. Have the trigger tip in one hand and pliers in the other. The compressor will expand the grips and use the pliers to pull on the grip.
Awesome Vid, Looking to get some for my XSR very soon as I want to ride in the winter. One question which unrelated to the grips, which bar ends do you have? trying to find one similar that can screw on and have a pair bar end mirror but cant find a pair. Thanks in advance
Thx for the video! I've got a set ready to put on my FZ09. I was concerned about simply putting a larger 5amp fuse to feed the accessory plug (electrical engineer I'm not). Have you had any issues on that circuit with the larger fuse?
Great video, how do you like them 5 months later? Thinking about putting these on my FZ09. Could you have put a spacer washer in the throttle side bar end to extend it out while still being able to tighten it down? Just an idea. Cheers awesome video
I really like them, I used them a lot in the fall, mostly on the highest setting. Wish I had put them on years ago. I like the spacer idea, as long as it didn't apply pressure to the throttle I think it would work great.
If you would, please let us know, how they work out. The comfort level, how much further into cold weather they get you and any expectations they exceed or don't meet. Did you consider heated gloves at any point?
I'll be doing a follow up video once the temperature drops here. I did consider heat gloves, but I figured heated grips would be a more convenient solution.
Omg...Is more easy to put off your grips if you use a wrench ( at the beginning of the handle) and you hit with an hammer the wrench you will see that it will come out without problems. Try ;)))))
Nice! Makes the decision to ride on a chilly day that much easier

Offsetting the grip is a good idea. I bump mine on occasion but I'm used to the placement now so it doesn't happen often.

Rhino moto bar ends. Thanks for checking out the channel!

I've had the grips on for a year now with no issues
@@XSRDetroit Thanks for the reply! Looking forward to not having to pry my frozen fingers off the handlebars :)

How do they perform?
I have the Yamaha grips on my XSR900, but they are rubbish. Not hot at all (and they are set correctly for the right CC).
I ran them on the highest setting on a chilly morning ride to work and they get very hot.
@@XSRDetroit Nice! Might need to swap to these at some point.
Sold✅
Love new speedo
Hi
Can you tell me what the outside diameter of the grips is?
Thanks
35 mm
@@XSRDetroit thanks
Do they fill thicker than the stock ones ?
Yeah, they're thicker. Feel very comfortable and I noticed my hands don't go numb nearly as fast compared to the stock grips.
