Default Oxford HotHands

Anyone tried these? I got them because i did not want to play arround with removing the grips. They just wrap around the bar and can be taken off if you dont want them there.

I have a SK2, i found a wire comming from the bottom of the fuse box that is orange that seems to be switched to the ignition, just checking if it is ok to use this wire?

That's wire I used when I did mine - but I have a 2000 model.

Nutty Tart uses those grips, she seems to like 'em... As for the wire, on mine I took the hot lead to the horn.

Everyone I spoken to says that they work well enough, the only possible problem is that they make they grips quite large, OK if your hands are big enough, but I've only got little hands and they're to big to be comfortable/safe for me, depends on you of course.
