I have a 13 HS that I want to install heated grips. Do you guys use the adventure or sport? Do either the White or black connectors work or must you splice to fit the duc?
Thanks.
Thanks.
Which Oxford heated Grips?
- Thread starter goodmatt78
- Start date
Hey So I bought a set of Oxford "Heaterz" Touring Grips a few years ago looks like it may be a discontinued item.
The Sportz instead of the Touring may still be an option: Oxford Replacement Heaterz Sports Grip - RevZilla
But not sure if you read on the forum, there's a few writeups on how to add an aftermarket plug to the factory prewiring!
You have to have a dealer or shop activate the grips (you can do it before you actually install anything which is what I did when I was there for a service and then installed them months later)
It's built in to the Hyperstrada from what I can tell. It for sure was on my '14 HS 821 so I'd imagine the same on a 13.
The cool thing is it's cheaper to buy because you just buy the "replacement grips" without a controlller so they're cheaper and it looks completely factory without a switch.
It uses the starter button once started it toggles between OFF LOW MED and HIGH.
The Oxfords work PERFECTLY and only on days when it was 0 degrees in the mountains did I ever need it on High even with regular non-insulated gloves. Super Hot. Awesome not needing to worry about winter gloves either.
There's the specific plug that Ducati (forget the name) uses that you Cut and splice onto the grips and then they plug in without cutting anything on the bike.
Should be 2 prewired ports one for GPS and one for heated grips on the HS.
Hope this helps!

Sounds good.... Thanks. I'm looking at the adventure and sport version... Both are available on Amazon as replacement grips. Revzilla is out of stock.
I have Oxford Adventure hot grips on my HS. The throttle side needed to be trimmed a little (there's provision to do so on the heated grips) and the clutch side fits perfectly. There's in fact two factory installed hot grip wires/plugs for the hot grips, one for each grip and also a GPS wire/plug in the wiring bundle behind the headlight. You need to hunt them out a little as they are well buried in the wiring bundle but they are there and they are labeled. Cheers.
I bought the sport grips this morning as they are similar in length to the stock ones and not quite and large as the adventure. Stock are 1.25 inch...sport are 1.31 and adventure i believe are 1.35 inch.
Site works again!
I added the oxford heated sport grips to my 939 sp. worked great and my dealer activated the ecu for free. I did have to shave the outer ring on the throttle side. Do not file down the horizontal tabs on the throttle tube.
