i really liked your video...Excellent job Becca...!!! I have an Icon Blue 2022 MT07 & changing to heated grips is going to be my next mod....i subscribed....
I've got the Oxford Sports Heated grips, but this video has been useful for cable management and best method for gluing the grips on without seizing the rotation of the throttle. Thanks for making this! Looking forward to the Akrapovic exhaust installation video.
I suggest to use auxiliary connector. You can find it under fuel tank at left side. It is fused and connected to ignition. Plugs are available at ebay. www.ebay.com/itm/133436111710 If you would like to use heated grips and usb charger you can use power splitter www.ebay.com/itm/133436492401
I may invest in those heat grips if they are better than the oxford intelligent heat grips. Love your bike I'm due a upgrade on my bike may go for a sports bike. Nice work anyway 😉
on my 2022 i changed to a Corbin seat & sissy bar, front, rear & engine sliders, Puig windscreen, radiator guard, switched the front blinkers to TST angel eys/halo, w/ Blue running lights, Rokform phone holder, 400.oo Cado sound system in my helmet so i can use SERI, GPS, make & take phone calls, talk to several other riders, & listen to music, has JBL speakers but only problem w/ it is if i'm going 50 or faster, which i usually am there's so much wind noise in my +700.oo Shoei helmet that i can't hardly hear the music, & after i stop my ears are ringing bad from tenittis....maybe i shouldn't of got the Cardo music system & went the other way, changed the pipes to make the bike louder.....? i wanted to keep the stock pipes to hear the music....
Awesome video. How are the grips working for you? What kind of temperatures have you riden in with those grips on? I just started installing some bike master grips on my R1. Still have to wire everything up.
Mine work perfectly fine. The Yamaha grips heat up in about 30 seconds. I usually don't even keep them on the hottest setting because they actually burn your hand, that's how hot they get. The coldest I ride at is around 0 Celsius, but I don't like going below that just because usually there is salt on the streets and I don't want to get it on my bike. Also the tires don't have the same grip as when is warmer out. But I can ride around those temperatures no problem. I hope you find they work well on your bike once you're done the installation 😊
Thanks so much! I hear that. I’m in Texas and don’t ride colder than upper 30s Fahrenheit because we get ice on the roads once it gets below freezing. Glad you’re enjoying yours. Definitely hoping mine will make commuting in the cold more comfortable as my hands are the only things I have problems keeping comfortable lol. Ride safe!
Great to hear. I finished mine up today and took it for a ride. It was about 50 degrees Fahrenheit with the wind. Felt nice with only regular leather gloves. It’s currently 42 degrees and falling. Going out for a ride in a little bit to see how they hold up. It’s very windy out so we’ll see. Take care and enjoy the ride
Awesome... first video where I see someone take the grip off without cutting it...What are the heated grips like? Mine broke down every 6 months and weren't heating that much hence why I'm considering the ugly Oxford heated grips. Thanks for the video.
So glad you liked it! And I bought the original Yamaha grips because they were great quality. I have had them for 2 years now and they still work perfectly fine. The heat up super fast too (like 30 seconds to be hot). I would assume the Oxford ones work the same way. Best of luck installing yours 😊
Well done young lady! Great instructional video. I just bought a pair for my MT09. Don't know where you live, but I live in Alaska and I want to extend my riding season longer than 4 months if I can. These should help. So how cold can you comfortably ride with the heated grips?
Hi JB, so glad you liked the video 😊 I live in Canada and the coldest I have ridden my bike with those on is -2 Celsius. My hands were fine at that temperature, my knees and legs were the ones getting cold haha I think you can definitely get a good season with those grips. Best of luck!
@@beccashacks1798 Just installed them two days ago and I love them. I have a condition called Raynaud's Syndrome, if my hands get cold the circulation shuts off to my fingers and they go completely numb. It can lead to amputation if not attended to quickly. These grips really take care of the problem for me so they don't get cold in the first place.
@@MRUNDISPUTEDCHAMPION Absolutely! Rode today at 52F partly cloudy day in Soldotna Alaska. My hands which have poor circulation and get cold very quickly were toasty warm. The grips warm up fast and the controls work great. I would highly recommend them. It was a very easy install, with the most time consuming issue was routing the wires to be as tidy as possible. I've installed the heated films that wrap around the bar as well as the rod elements that slide inside the bar and the Yamaha grips are the best I've ever installed.
I have them on my MT 09 SP, love them. Only downside the grip of the handels is not very great, and I dont think you can change the rubber? what do you think?
Hi Joe, I honestly don’t think you can change the rubber. I took the grips off because I was replacing the handlebar and they didn’t seem to be modular at all so I don’t think you can change them but that is just my opinion. If you do find a way to do it please let me know 😊 thanks for checking out the video and for leaving a comment 😊
@@beccashacks1798 thanks for your reply, I looked at your other videos also. pretty intressting and entertaining! If I find out if I can change the rubber I will let you know. Do you still drive your MT07? I want to say I give you respect for building your own workout/lifting rack. A handy and a enterprising women. Who does not like that :)
Becca's Hacks oh I do I already have 19,000 miles or over 30,000 km i have had my 2017 fz07 for almost only 11months so you can say I enjoy it a lot but also on the grips I just cut one off and rolled the throttle one off and then I installed the new ones from pro grip I think it’s called I just used isopropyl alcohol and I drenched the inside of the grip and the handlebar and twisted it on and now it’s like glued on there I didn’t use just the alcohol so it’s nice it only literally took me like 2mins to install both lol it was my first time doing that so it was easy and the grips don’t move or anything it’s like if they got glued
Hey I have a question for you! How tall are you? Do find it difficult to maneuver on the bike when doing stop and go or moving backward? I'm looking at the MT-09 and its seat has an extra inch and a half on the bike I have now which kinda sucks. I supposed to I could get some boots with a thick sole to make up the difference.
Hi there! I am 5’5 and I haven’t had any issues with the height. I’m sure you will be fine 😊 are you able to go test it at a dealership before buying it to make sure it works for you?
I removed them after the installation to replace the handle bar. You just have to work slowly and carefully so that you don’t damage the resistors inside the grips
Hi, I looked it up online and it seems like both your handlebar and mine have a 7/8" diameter. I bought mine from the Yamaha website but I can't seem to find the link right now for some reason I did find it on eBay though: www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Genuine-Yamaha-Motorcycle-Heated-Grips-Fits-all-makes-with-22mm-handlebars-/141833853090 Hope it helps 😊 enjoy your bike 🏍️
That's great to hear! You're gonna love them. They work very well and I like that there are no connectors exposed. I actually got a full Akrapovic exhaust installed on it, I just haven't posted the video yet lol if you're ever in Canada I would have to check out your bike 😛
This is the best install video I've looked at so far for these grips. :)
Precise and concise. :)
The clearest explanation of any vid I've watched on these.

thx for that. it's nice to see women tinkering and not just posing.
Haha thanks so much 😊
The car in the background around minute 13:20 clearly has a flat tire :-) Nice video, will help me when I get the heated grips soon. Thanks!
Very Nice! If I get a fz07 deff referring back to this video. Thankyou
Thanks so much for the comment! Means a lot to me 😊
cheers becks my grips come loose so now i know how to put it back right
Great video, but one note; the left side should go straight down, if it doesn't, it will be a little bit of an hindrance to your controls.
I suggest to use auxiliary connector. You can find it under fuel tank at left side. It is fused and connected to ignition.
Plugs are available at ebay.

Why didn t you use the spare accessories plug that is on the side of your fuel tank instead of going all the way to the battery?

are the yamaha heated grips any good ????
I have had them on for about two years now and they have been great. They also heat up pretty fast

Will these fit on fj09?
My bike has handle bars with a diameter of 22 mm (7/8"). According to Google FJ09s have the same diameter so they should work
What country is this this that u need heated grips ?must be below zero!!
Canada 😊 the city were I live often hits -30 Celsius in the winter 🥶
@@beccashacks1798 wow too cold to ride !
@@beccashacks1798 How can you control the bike in snow & ice?
dw-40?
It’s just a lubricant. I’m sure any lubricant would work for that purpose
@@beccashacks1798 its called wd-40 in the states
Wrong not to the battery use relay and power from back light otherwise you battery will be dead quickly
