hi,
i did a search on this and seen that the Oxford heated grips where really well liked, but couldn't find a dealer in the states.
does anyone know of a place i can buy these, or could reccommend another good heated grip.
thx,
dave

Im looking at the heat demons becuase the switch looks really factory and the reviews that I could find look ok. I am going to wait and see what the Versys 2010 acc list looks like there is apparently going to be heated grips? But who knows when they will come out. Its stil warm over here in Sydney so I can wait a couple of months.
I like these. Worked for a couple of years now without issue. They're on sale from time to time at around $20.

:exactly:
I use the Kimpex also. I use them on my dirt bikes too, have held up well to all kinds of conditons and crashes. Nice thing is they work with any grips.
I get them from my local shop for $28.

Ironpony, they're near Columbus, Ohio, but they also have an online store. I got my set from them for $30 from the clearance bin.
Although they're not working right now, they were awesome when they did :D Kidding aside, the grips are still fine, it's something else that needs fixing.

The Heat Demons won't go inside the stock Versys bars, as the bar ends are welded, drilled and threaded for the bar ends.
I fitted the standard Symtec heated grip kit (http://www.wolfmanluggage.eu.com/shop/product.php/116/symtec_heated_grip_kit) to my Versys, much neater than the Oxford's imo. Had them on my past six bikes now and really rate them. About a neat a fit as you'll get I think. I put a link into the place I got them form in the UK, not sure about Aus.

Did not think it would get cold enough in Sydney to use heated grips
