Are they heated grips stock ? Thanks '15-'17 FJ-09 had heated grips available as an option. Tracer GT models came with heated grips as standard equipment. ***2015 Candy Red FJ-09*** Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I got rid of the factory hand guards and I replaced the original handlebars with Rizoma bars and bar end weights from an FZ1 so I'm not sure of the thread pitch for the oem parts. ***2015 Candy Red FJ-09*** Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ride365 Posted November 26, 2023 Share Posted November 26, 2023 (edited) Were you not aware you had heated grips this entire time? Swapping bars can be a hassle for many reasons, seems you have started to have that occur. Some great wisdom and experience here on the forum, hope you get everything swapped over successfully.

I just got the bike a month ago. Lots to learn. Yes, it's a bit of work but thats fine. Here in So Cal heated grips really aren't needed. Now to find where the wires are plugged in so I can disconnect them. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yea, I've had that problem occasionally too. My cludgy 'fix' is to use the snipping tool (in Windows in my case) on the original photo and that seems to straighten things out when the snip is posted. 🤷♂️ Not elegant, but works!
