They will fit. Don't be surprised if the left hand grip doesn't get as hot as the right hand one as quick. Same for almost all heated grips.

They'll fit fine. Use em on mine.

Only issue is, as tomor said the left doesn't get as warm as the right. It is in direct contact with the metal bar so takes a bit of heat away. Not a huge problem though.

The one thing I will say about them is that wear is a concern. My left hand one has compressed and started to wear through where my palm sits on it. I ride mine 5 days a week min so quite a lot of use.

Will take a pic later and post it so you can see.

That being said I don't think it has effected the operation of the grips but it is something to keep an eye on.

Yeah I'd seen those. It was the five heat settings I thought would be better than on or off so these seem to have been reviewed.
So you reckon these ones are better?

The Keis ones have Off, Low and High settings. Low is pretty low, High is pretty high. Off is ...er ...off.

High is high, Off is off and Low is (really) off as well

Not that tight, think it is just the downward pressure.

The 5 heat settings are good on those though
