Just ordered oxford heated grips for my vfr last night 🤣 This video just comes handy 😉

[@Motourev]

Super easy to fit. The controller bracket fits on both nuts on the clutch reservoir. Just screw it down and the bolts bend it to shape

Nice one mate you can never have too many instructional videos on KZbin, my highest view count is on a Akrapovic baffle removal 🤘🙂

[@allun13]

Nicely done Craig. Looking forward to Part 2! Stay safe mate.

[@TheMilitaryBiker]

Always a thorough explanation and how to mate, nice job. They will be great in the cold. ✌️🇬🇧. Merry Christmas.

[@simonsaunders12]

[@Motourev]

You too guys deffo look forward to meeting again, far too less this year but 🤞🏻 next year we all get to celebrate 🤘🏻

Another interesting video Craig. I await your comparison with interest. I too have both. Except mine are Keis. Heated grips are fine, and would never go without them, but they obviously only heat part of your hand. So in very cold conditions the back of your hand can still be cold.. Where heated gloves heat front and back. So today on my ride out and I only used my heated grips. God I wish I had my heated gloves.. But in better weather, heated grips are great as you use them as you need them. Also it depends on the individual.. I have bad circulation and feel the cold a lot more than I used to..

[@Motourev]

Interesting mate thanks, be good to see the temperature readouts

[@KevsShed]

Nice job Craig! 👍😎

[@robertyoung76]

I got these for Christmas. You've just made my job easier. Thanks Craig

[@Motourev]

😂 tip, put extra glue on the left bar. The grip that fits the throttle sticks easy as the throttle housing is plastic. The left bar is metal so need more glue or it comes lose.

[@robertyoung76]

@@Motourev thanks for the tip. I might have a go tomorrow

@@Motourev Hey Craig. Did you have to cut your honda grips off. Are they saveable. Thanks

My favorite bike ,the vfr!!! First bike when I was 16 was a 1986 Honda vfr700. The one bike I absolutely hate that I got rid of

You had a VFR700 whn you was 16? you must be American?

looking forward to see what you think of the gerbing gloves ive had a pair 5 years and i love them

[@stephenfoster1971]

nice work dude. heated grips are a godsend, can't wait to see what you think of the gloves, might have to be my next purchase!

[@Motourev]

I’m expecting a lot from the gloves, maybe too much to be honest. Having heated grips on the blade it was a nice feature but was surprised to actually see how poor they perform as in keeping your hands warm. The one part that doesn’t get cold is the palm of your hand and that’s the part getting the heat, where the outside and finger tips were so cold it got painful. I think the gloves are the real answer but the combo of the two should make perfection.

[@stephenfoster1971]

@@Motourev yeah that should definitely work. The handguards on my bike add a lot to it as they stop the wind hitting the back of your hand and the fingers so the grips have a fighting chance of warming your hands. the glove should give a nice all round warmth. do we get a motourev discount?

[@Motourev]

@@stephenfoster1971 cough cough obviously 😉

[@robvp71]

Did you remove the tank for the wiring? (And thx for the video, made me feel comfortable enough to start working on it myself :-)

[@Motourev]

No didn’t need to remove tank I managed push the wires under the bottom edge

[@ugurtuncel6548]

What are you sticking it with?

[@BillyBigBalls770]

Number 5 is simply too hot 🔥 honestly burn your bloody hands, and can melt the glue believe it or not. Number 3 is perfect. I need the alternator belt changing on my BM, when can I book it in???🤗

[@Motourev]

😂😂😂 i book you in the new year 🙈 year the glue did melt the left hand grip
