E: Trial ﬁ t the Oxford HotGrips

1. Always “dry ﬁ t” the grip to the bar ﬁ rst, to ensure that the grip is a snug ﬁ t before using the adhesive.

2. The HotGrips have a unique internal tube that can expand to ﬁ t over the handlebar.

3. This makes them easier to ﬁ t over handlebars that have inconsistent diameter bars due to

manufacturing tolerances.

4. If the grips are too tight to slide on with only gentle effort, do not force them on

or damage may occur. Check the dimensions of the handlebars again and adjust as necessary.

5. When sliding the grips onto the handlebars it is possible to twist them into place until they reach the

correct ﬁ nished position.

F: Positioning on handlebars:

1. Position the grips so that the wires do not foul against the brake / clutch levers.

The throttle grip should rotate freely without obstruction and without stretching or pinching the wires.

The ideal ﬁ tment position of the grips can vary from bike to bike. We ﬁ nd that an

ideal position can be one whereby the wires of the grips sit just below the brake and throttle levers.

This position allows the Hotgrip wiring to be neatly attached to the clutch/brake cables and usually

prevents the wires from being strained.

However some people prefer the wire of the grips to sit a safe clearance above the brake and clutch levers

so that the wire exits forward and relatively horizontal. When the throttle is opened the wire will then raise

upwards and away from the brake lever.

2. Before removing the grips for the ﬁ nal ﬁ tting procedure, it is important to connect the electrical wiring

harness to the battery and the grips. With the motorcycle engine running the grips can be switched on

to make sure that the grips operate as expected. Failure to do so may invalidate the warranty.

G: Final ﬁ tting of grips

1. Use the Super glue provided. It has been proven for this application and we cannot guarantee the

suitability of an alternative.

2. Warning: The Superglue will bond skin and eyes in seconds. Keep out of reach of children.

• IT IS VERY IMPORTANT TO FIT THE GRIP IMMEDIATELY AND WITHOUT DELAY BECAUSE THE

SUPERGLUE PROVIDED WILL BOND THE HOTGRIPS TO THE BARS VERY QUICKLY. THIS IS

PARTICULARLY RELEVANT WITH THE THROTTLE SLEEVE AND HOTGRIPS

• Don’t let the glue drip onto paintwork. Shield paintwork appropriately.
