heated grips
« on: October 20, 2015, 11:54:04 AM »
I'm looking for a replacement heated throttle grip that's firm/hard to put on my `77 damaged Convert. throttle.  It doesn't have to heat.  I know many brand grips sell replacements separate and that's what I'm looking for.  My Hot Grips throttle on my 750 Breva is hard but they want as much for a new 1 as other brands cost for a  whole set!  Can anyone here recommend another brand that will meet my needs for just a hard throttle grip?   Thanx

Can't say if this is cheaper.

What I'm hoping for is someone who has aftermarket heated grips of X brand wherein the throttle grip is firm/hard.  Then I will see if I can just buy that grip separately.

Part of my Tomaselli throttle plastic grip is gone so I want to put a hardened heated grip on top of it and then put a Throttlerocker on that rather than replace the whole throttle grip.

  When I lived in the cold places I always wished for something that would warm my toes and feet more than my fingers.
  In WW2 the Germans solved the problem on BMWs and Zundapps by routing exhaust to shields that cupped the toes and hands
 making good use of hot exhaust gasses.  directions said to close off the valves when starting a cold engine to prevent fire from the choked engine until it was warm enough to run smoothly.
  When riding the sub zero weather on the Russian front it was a blessing.
