    OEM grip heaters stopped working

    I know this thread is long buried but maybe someone has some useful info. My OEM heated throttle grip started slipping (OEM throttle tube glue has failed) during a ride last weekend and as a result it started pulling on the heater wire that attaches to the grip inside the housing when the grip...

    ECU Flash or Bog standard bike?

    GrahamD & Platty I got the flash done at ECUWest. Tried to contact the other two ECU Unleashed dealerships near Sydney and neither would return a call. Platty I never did understand the "off idle stumble" that others talk about so I probably thought all the things your thinking about, is it...

    ECU Flash or Bog standard bike?

    I'm in Australia and I've had the gen 2 flash done. I thought all the things about maybe I won't improve my Aussie bike like the overseas models (due to restrictions etc on overseas models - perhaps) but its night and day between stock and the flash, now that I've had it done. I'm not going to...

    Wanted - OEM Fork Top Cap

    maybe your right. I was taught my trade in the military where I learnt to expect nothing less than perfect or not far behind. By the way the two pictures are not of the same side. And yeh your right the stuff is like cheese to work with but these guys are the busiest suspension shop in the...

    Wanted - OEM Fork Top Cap

    Here's the handywork of the fella who did my suspension work. Some might think I'm a little pedantic about a dual sport bike, but I'd just paid $1,000 dollars and got work back like this. They also did some more of the same on one of the calliper bolts, ABS line bracket that they bent the...

    Wanted - OEM Fork Top Cap

    USPS works fine also. I've had plenty of stuff delivered via USPS, it then usually makes its way through the Australia Post system which is reliable and not priced over the top. UPS is quicker but more expensive. But whatever is the easiest. I'm in no rush.

    Wanted - OEM Fork Top Cap

    I'm very grateful and willing to cover more than any cost of postage or to send anything from Australia you may want in exchange. I'll PM my address to you. I can organise a deposit to you via PayPal or direct to a bank if you would like to PM me whatever works for you. Or if there's a way I can...

    Wanted - OEM Fork Top Cap

    I am hoping someone that has had their S10 Forks upgraded by Ohlins (as this removes the OEM Fork Top Caps) will sell me either one or both of the Front Fork Top Caps that came off their bike during the Ohlins upgrade. OR If someone has a set of forks that perhaps are off a damaged S10 that I...

    Fitting OEM heated grips. Grr!

    Did you drill the new hole? Step 45 on page 4/7. If you have the original bars there is already a centre punch mark that you just drill with a 4.5mm drill bit. That should fix your problem.

    Fitting OEM heated grips. Grr!

    I feel your pain! This afternoon I thought it would be wise to disassemble my oem heated grips and degrease and check for cable wear inside the housing. All was good after 15,000kms. I used silicone grease as the instructions recommend. A couple tips for assembly if its not too late for you...

    Thanks for the good effort with the commentary and pics. Great read. Inspiring to get out on the bike more than I do.
