Is there any interest in a Hot grips install pictorial?
I asked this a couple of years ago, and only had one person that said they were interested.
I know it's not the time of year where you need them...but if you have a nice shady place to work, it's definitely a good time of year to install them!
I've got most of a pictorial put together from a year or so back...only missing a couple of pictures....but I'm not going to bother putting it the rest of the way together if the interest isn't there.
I put them on both my Buddy 125s, and I use them all the time from the beginning of fall through the end of spring.

Okay, I'll try to get the last couple of pictures some time this weekend.
Right after I started the thread, we decided the time was right to rebuild our remaining gate, as it's on it's last legs and short enough for someone to step over....and we have company tomorrow (Saturday). So hopefully Sunday I can finish up the pictorial.

Well, I am pretty bummed. I have been busy lately, so couldn't get to the pictorial, but now I have it all together and ready to go. It just figures that at the last moment I went on line to the web site for HotGrips, and when I click on the model grip I am posting about I see this message:

Hot Grips has been around for 28 years, and have a very good rating as being great quality and having a local presence here in the USA with a fast response time to any emails you send them.
I have emailed them to find out if they are out of business, or....? Much of my pictorial would still be applicable, but some parts would not be.
I really like their product...I have a set installed on both Buddy's and a set I ordered, but haven't installed yet on my Scarabeo 500ie.
I will start a new thread and post my pictorial either when I hear what's happening with Hot Grips, or if I can determine how to modify my pictorial so that it is still helpful even with a different product.
