Oxford OF692Z OF692 Verwarmingsgrepen Sports met V8-schakelaar

I got nothing bad to say about it!

Bra pris. Saknades dock instruktion på engelska i alla fall, men det fanns på nätet. Passar 22 mm (7/8") styre. Funkar perfekt.

Quizá sea pronto para escribir reseña, puesto que llevo solo 1 día con ellos. Pero ya he pasado por una moto con este mismo modelo así que asumo la fiabilidad y valoro el montaje en mi TRK 502x. El kit no trae instrucciones en inglés,pero no son necesarias. Básicamente conectar a los bornes de la batería, dirigir los cables hasta debajo del tablero e ir fijando mediante las bridas que trae el kit. Para retirar los puños originales de la moto es recomendable usar algún lubricante, en caso de la trk, el puño del gas tuve que sacarlo haciéndole un corte con un cutter ya que estaba muy fijado al acelerador (cilindro interno de plástico que tira del cable del gas). El resto del montaje es fácil, con paciencia y comprobando todo el recorrido del manillar cuando los cables están en posición. El único inconveniente que le veo es el de conectarlo directamente a la batería y poder olvidar dejarlos conectados o que alguien te vandalice el invento. Pero es un riesgo que al final hay que asumir. La calidad de los puños es buena y es un extra indispensable para los días de frío. Adiós al dolor de los dedos en días gélidos.

I've just installed the Oxford Premium Sports Heated grips on a first-gen FZ1. Installation was straightforward. While you can wire through a relay, the Oxford controller has an auto-shutoff feature if you leave the grips on after powering off the bike. I mounted the controller on my left side fairing insert, but you have lots of flexibility on where to mount (and Oxford includes a metal mount bracket that you may find more useful for your application).The grips fit my 7/8" bars pretty well. These grips are not expandable or rubberized like a traditional grip (they have a hard plastic shell on the inside... the part that makes contact with your bar or throttle tube). Oxford includes a glue (they call it 'super glue', but it's very runny or watery in consistency. While I had hoped that the grips would be snug enough without any glue, in my case the grips were a snug fit, but not snug enough to be secure without some sort of glue. So I used their glue... not tons of it, but enough. So far, they seem to be holding very well. A tip on the glue... I applied a bit to the inside of the grip on the section that is towards the inside of the bike (if you put it on the bar, then as you slide the grip on, it's likely going to just press the glue along the bar and run out everywhere). Again, it's watery, so be prepared for some to run out the outside as you slide the grip into place. Also, dry-fit it first and mark exactly where you want it to land. You have very little time before that glue sets... maybe just a couple of seconds. So lay down towels to catch drops, put on gloves, dry-fit, mark it, ensure you can fit it quickly, then glue on the side of the grips, and finally apply it and get it into position quickly. You're probably wondering about removal. So am I. :) I'll cross that bridge when I come to it. Obviously you can cut off the grip, but if you wanted to remove without destroying, maybe lots of heat and an injection of acetone or goof-off (not sure this won't ruin plastic of the inside of the grip, and perhaps the throttle tube). Anyway, something to consider.The grips a just slightly larger in diameter than either stock or Progrip grips, so a slightly more bulky feel. The Sports grips have a bit of a rubberized textured surface. It's not soft like a Progrip dual-density gel grip, but not hard either. Perhaps a firm textured surface describes it best.The controller has a number of settings, and once on the lowest setting, if you press [-] to reduce setting again, it powers the unit off. Buttons are large and tactile, so easy to operate with a gloved finger. And the LED light is easily visible even in sunlight.With temps near 40F, even just the 50% setting is more than adequate and delivers lots of warmth after just a few minutes. I find the heat to be very consistent across both grips (often the left side grip is colder due to the heat-sink of the bar, but with the Oxford grips, this doesn't seem to be a problem). On the higher settings, these grips get very warm indeed. And of course, it's not the same as a heated glove liner that covers the entire hand, but it does make winter riding very tolerable. Nothing is worse than the pain of cold on your hands/fingers, and with heated grips, your ride can be much more pleasant.Overall they seem to be high quality and are working well. I'll update here if my experience changes or I see issues in the future.NOTE: In pics, my left grip is flipped where I ran the wire on the top. This is not typical. Normally you want this to be running down and out the bottom. I ran it this way because I have non-standard bars on my bike, and they have very little clearance with the tank when fully cocked, and it just ended up being better clearance this way.

Bon.. quoi dire si ce n'est que je les ais installé depuis 15 jours, je roule tous les jours avec sur mon sv650n de 2005 et ça fonctionne plutôt bien. L'installation est assez simple dès lors qu'on a pas peur de démonter le réservoir pour faire passer correctement les câbles.le froid s'est enfin décider à nous faire coucou donc il fait un bon 0 voir -2 avec brouillard et après 15mn de route, j'ai les mains au chaud. Evidemment, les doigts restent frais parce que ça ne chauffe que la paume des mains mais ça l'fait quand même avec des revit stratus goretex. Chauffe testée par 2° pendant 1h de route à 80/140 kmh et couplé avec des proteges-mains, ça l'fait bien. ressenti frais au bout des doigts mais le reste est ok.Penser à bien orienter la commande pour y accéder sans retirer la main du guidon. Moi j'ai du plier gentiment la patte de fixation. J'apporterais un autre réglage pour éviter de plier le câble comme on le voir sur la photo. J'ai pour l'instant trop la flemme de soulever le réservoir pour arranger tout ça :)Bonne route et V à tous.

good value for money and easy to fit.
