As a lot of you know I'm in the trade so I'm going to make this offer. If four or more people are interested I can supply the following heated grips at a cost of £35 + postage.

https://i4.ebayimg.com/03/i/08/d6/7f/96_1.JPG

These are the dial adjust heated grips and are available for 7/8ths and 1' inch bars. They have no ends so are fine with bar ends. I use these daily on my courier work bikes and have found them to be faultless. They come with two control box mounts, one for 7/8ths handlebars and one stick on mount for a flatish surface.

And the Muffs at the bottom of the page £25 + postage.

The Muffs are ballistic type nylon outer, insulated with a nylon inner and so far I've found them water proof. These are not the fur lined cheap ones you find on Ebay that absorb water.

The picture of the bike gives you a good idea of just how big they are, huge. To fit these securely I've cut a small hole for the mirror stalks (there is a velcro flap you can use instead for quick removal) and a small hole for the bar end bolt. You can also see the grip control on the left side of the bars.

I only need to sell 4 items to cover the postage to me and I make next to nothing for my time so if anyones interested in anything let me know.

Postage price will be dependant on how quick you want them. If you live in the London area pick up would be fine.

Yes they will fit a CBR400

No problem. I'm leaving it a couple of day so people get a chance to see the offers.

Everyone.

If you don't live in London paypal or cheques are fine or even paying straight into my bank account at Natwest.

Most Jap bikes are 22mm or 7/8".

Harleys are inch diameter.

Not Oxford and yes they'll fit.

Swaffs

I can probably drop off in Kensington, often in W8 area.

Dew

Bethnal Green. Yes I can fit but it is very easy.

Tatters

You live anywhere near Swaffs?

I'm looking at ordering Friday for a Saturday delivery.

No. Standard ring connectors for the battery.

Or get some dr. bike ones for £20, like I did (they don't absorb water and they are very warm).

All sounding good, if you can get anwwhere near West Kensington station it would be cool (I work behind it), I can travel to you if it's easier (although bike is off road, so it's Tube only!)

I can bring Tatters grips to mine, and we can then sort something he's not for from me. If your happy with that Tatters, I'm in Morden, just off the A3.

I might have a few requests for some more, but won't know until tomorrow.

Just called up my dealer to enquire about oxford grips and he said £50 + £70 labour (as it's a 1.5 hrs job).. fukin git!! Thumbs Down

sickpup, i live in harrow which is a bit far!! So will see what can i do.
Question: Are the grips glued on to the bar? I would like to normal grips come summer, hence the question! And how long will it take to fit them , considering mine is a faired bike.

Thumbs Up Cheers,
Dew

You can buy Oxford heated grips on ebay for less money than these that can be removed for the summer, come with a 2 year guarantee as well.

Cash on collection or delivery is fine.



I Live right on the border with EC2 Shoreditch Triangle so shouldn't be a problem to deliver to you. Never know what time I finish work so delivery would probably be a good idea.

dew

Fitting should take about 1/2 hour if you just connect straight to the battery, the most you would take off is the tank to hide the wiring to the battery. Yes they are glued on for safety, you really don't want a grip coming off at speed. They are only slightly thicker than standard grips.
