But that's probably because they grip is thinner and with the plastic throttle tube thermally isolating the heater, they don't need to heat up the metal handlebar.RichardMhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04773834892715980735noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1512448163402185409.post-70117337798860602482016-08-16T17:34:27.844-08:002016-08-16T17:34:27.844-08:00I have the wiring running around the handgrips twi...I have the wiring running around the handgrips twice before heading out to the splice. In the past, the wiring always broke due to flexing at low temperatures. The first set I had were the Oxford and the second was Show Chrome. Both lasted only about three months each of cold weather. I don't have high expectations for these either but willing to put up with short life due to the price.

They even get hotter than the Oxford grips on Troubadour's Tiger.Trobairitzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03453398807198746434noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1512448163402185409.post-10853594452583181772016-08-16T05:45:00.664-08:002016-08-16T05:45:00.664-08:00I always thought the wiring looked a bit delicate ...I always thought the wiring looked a bit delicate for these type of grip heaters but hope they work out for you, the cost is right. I've been happy with my Oxford heated grips but then again I don't ride in the lower temps like you do regularly in Winter.redlegsrideshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10927757855921321097noreply@blogger.com
