I know it's a little late in the year now but I thought I'd post up some praise for these grips. After getting a go on a friend's VFR800 a couple of months back, which had the Oxford heated grips, I decided I had to get some for my long trips to and from uni. The Spada ones were £10 cheaper to buy (£32 fitted) and are just as good in my opinion. So if you're a poor student or just really tight, of which I am both, have a look at these!
Thanks. |

That sounds like a good idea, I'm looking to get some heated grips (uni student too, and will be doing an hours commute next year to uni) and I've heard some stuff about oxford ones having some flaws which it really shouldnt have (correct me people if im wrong). Let us know if you get any faults?

i've got the new hotgrips, and the concern about them being colder is a myth. I had the original controller, it broke so i sent it back then got sent the new one. They're roasting! to the point of burning your hands even with winter gloves. New controller is easy to work, has a battery warning (although it cuts out when the battery is low) and looks a hell of a lot more waterproof/durable than the last model.
Def. recommended. |
