    Default Looking for heated grips. Install issues

    I asked the dealership to install heated grips before they delivered the trike. But they failed to do it. So now I have to figure out what will fit on the Ryker. Another issue is I have the wind hand deflectors that are attached to then end of the bar. So that may be tricky to deal with. Are there any Spyder Lovers merchants who have solved this issue?

    Possibly, however they are widely available either the entire grip ( get one MTC specific ) … or add on your grips heating pads some even have multiple heat settings …...Mike

    I looked at the ones that just wrapped around the existing grips. I don't think they have temperature control. Also, it will make the grips too thick.

    I installed Oxford heated grips on my Valkyrie. There are also 4 heat settings. They work very well and have an automatic shutdown feature. I haven't seen a Ryker, so I dont know if they will fit. They do have removable end caps that may solve your other issue. Hope this helps.

    I installed Apollo heated grips on my Ryker. They were not easy to install, no heated grips are, but they work really well and are very subtle, with the heat controls built right into the left grip. Unless you are pretty mechanically inclined, I'd suggest you get some experienced help for the project.

    I have the mechanical aptitude of a monkey, so I would have them installed at iMotorsports. Can you give me a link to what you are using?

    Thanks, I also like the controller being built into the handle.
