Installed a set of Oxford heated grips and Tusk bark buster covers so the wife doesn't freeze. Wasn't real easy to do. After cutting off factory grips I had to file down the end of the throttle plastic and cut the little plastic bumps off the throttle. I thought that side was hard but then on the clutch side I had to file the bar down to get the grip on. The heated grips have a plastic sleeves inside them and don't stretch. Was a lot of effort but man things things are nice. On high they get really warm. They have 5 settings and I'd say half way is all you'd ever need. The Tusk covers don't look all that great but they really block all the wind so who cares. The only problem with the grips is they say "oxford" on them and it's upside down. Makes you wonder. Might have to get a set for my KLR but I'll have to forget how much of a pain it was to put them on the CB300F first.
PS: Didn't get a good pic of the controller but you can see the edge of it in the pic of the left grip below.
