    Man, that Oregon countryside looks just like England's green and pleasant land.😮 I was certain- before you spoke and mentioned where you were- that this was in England.

    Great review. Just what I was looking for. 👌
    Picked my adventure style set up today. Can't wait to install them on my Kawasaki ER-6n.

    I experienced the same problem with the clutch side grip, super glue just didn't secure it. Ended up using some friction tape, like we used to use on hockey sticks, by wrapping the bar 1st. Great review by the way👍

    I have oxford heated grips on my 2011 Suzuki GSX 1250 fa.
    They were fitted when I bought the bike pre owned, so I think they are a older model. They work well, getting pretty warm when on the 100% setting, and maybe have to turn them down a little. Only downside I think, is that the grips themselves are a quiet hard material, so you feel the vibrations more.

    • @heybuck6588
      @heybuck6588  Před 2 lety +1

      Ya I definitely don’t use the highest setting unless it’s a really cold day.

    Thank you for your awesome informative video. I'm in the middle of buying one right now second hand in Melbourne. How much did they cost you brand new back then in USD

    How long do they take to heat up? My commute isn't very long (15mins or so).

    • @heybuck6588
      @heybuck6588  Před 8 měsíci +1

      Not long at all. I would guess 2 or 3 minutes.

  • @spidersav
    @spidersav Před 3 lety +1

    Do you think that I would need wind guards with these also in cold UK weather ? Or do these warm your fingertips to the point you don't see the need?

    • @heybuck6588
      @heybuck6588  Před 3 lety +2

      Backs of my hands do get cold on really cold mornings (3 or 4 C) so I wear warmer gloves. Otherwise the warmth at my palms seems to be enough.

      If you forget to turn them off there’s a safety circuit that’ll turn them off after about a minute. So, never had a problem.
