    Woo Hoo !!!

    You know your heated grips control

    Well I have the same one and I have put the small rubber clear semi spheres that you get on the back of cabinets to stop them banging over the buttons. You can get them from B&Q etc £3 for about 24 on a strip

    Makes it so easy to operate the controls with gloves on - especially in winter

    02 RD07a RWB, Powerbronze tall screen, Remus Grand Prix, TT crash bars, TT pannier frame, Zega style panniers, Alpos top box,TT bar risers, TT headlamp guard, Heated grips, mainstand, Heidenau K60s for road and light offroad, TKC80s for the dirty stuff, Scottoiler, Autocomm, TT Zumo mount, Zumo 550 and most of all A BIG GRIN !!! Oh, and a very nice RD04 HRC coloured Marathon Replica

    It looks like you are getting close to finishing this set of mods.
    What is next?
    It does not sound too noisy without the endcan.
    YOU ONLY NEED TWO TOOLS IN LIFE - WD-40 AND DUCT TAPE. IF IT DOESN'T MOVE AND SHOULD, USE THE WD-40. IF IT SHOULDN'T MOVE AND DOES, USE THE DUCT TAPE

    You sir, may well be a genius.

    I have the old style knob on one bike, which is so easy to use with gloves on, and this fiddly unit on the zebra. What a stupid design by Oxford. Your solution may be just the ticket.

    Well done Chronyx when you have finished you can do mine for me.
