Interesting. I see in this link that Oxford has updated their grips (that already were the best IMHO). Version 9 controller. Temperature sensor in each grip. Fast warm up. Waterproof connectors. Looks like I need to visit my local dealer.garyboy wrote: ↑Tue Nov 01, 2022 10:04 pm https://www.oxfordproducts.com/motorcyc ... ted_grips/
all their grips are listed .. prices, grip lengths, bar width, open end, closed end etc etc

Re: Which Oxford hot-grips to choose ?
In my commuting days I was an avid heated glove user. Gerbing if you're interested, the controller was very easy to use when kitted up so you could adjust the heat to avoid roasting your hands. It's often necessary to adjust because of the wind cooling the gloves at different speeds. I was also told good things about Keis.
Personally never got on with heated grips for reasons previously mentioned in the thread - for me the grips are way too bulky for my liking, and the material feels too hard.

I get cold hands even indoors if the heating is not on! On the bike I tried thicker and thicker gloves, muffs etc, but the only solution was Gerbing heated gloves. Complete game-changer, 4 settings for total control and all-over warmth, even below zero degrees.
I also use a heated vest, complete game-changer again!
You can get combined controllers and remote controls for tidier wiring but for now this does me fine.

+1 on the heated jacket. They are absolutely amazing. And with a warm torso, it'll keep your legs and hands warmer too. It's one of the "why didn't I get one years ago" things. Can't recommend highly enough.
