Product Information
Full details
The Oxford HotGrips Replacement Throttle (OF695T7) is designed for motorcycle riders who own an Oxford HotGrips original heating system and need to replace a damaged or worn-out right-hand grip. It restores full functionality to your heated handlebar setup, ensuring consistent warmth during cold-weather rides. A key caveat is that this is a model-specific spare part, meaning it is not a universal grip and must be confirmed compatible with your existing HotGrips controller and heating element before purchase.

FAQs
Is this grip compatible with all Oxford HotGrips?
No, it is designed for the 'Original' series. Always verify your specific model number before purchasing.
Does this come with glue?
Replacement grips typically require motorcycle-grade grip adhesive; check your package contents to see if adhesive was included or needs to be sourced separately.
Can I use this on the left side?
No, this is specifically designed for the throttle (right-hand) side. The internal diameter is different from the clutch (left-hand) side.
How do I ensure the heating wire doesn't snap?
Leave enough slack in the cable so that it does not reach its maximum tension when the throttle is fully opened.
Is the installation difficult?
It is considered a moderate DIY task, primarily involving the removal of the old grip and ensuring proper electrical connection to the existing harness.
Troubleshooting
Grip does not heat up after installation
Verify the electrical connection at the harness is fully seated and check the Oxford control unit for error codes.
Throttle feels stiff or does not return
Check that the grip is not rubbing against the bar-end weight or the switch gear housing, and ensure it is fully seated on the sleeve.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To install, first ensure the motorcycle ignition is turned off and the battery is disconnected for safety. Remove the old grip, being careful not to damage the existing throttle sleeve or wiring harness. Slide the OF695T7 onto the throttle tube, ensuring the wire lead is positioned so it does not pull or kink during full throttle rotation. Connect the electrical lead to the existing Oxford control circuit. Care for the grip involves regular cleaning with mild soap and water; avoid using harsh chemicals or degreasers that could degrade the rubber compound. Periodically inspect the wiring lead for signs of wear or rubbing against the handlebar housing.
