DIY Heated Handgrips: part two

I ran the wire through the grip, isolate using a piece of bicycle tyre rubber, and then wound it back inside. Once completed I taped the whole thing.




At first attempt I used only insulation tape, which did not hold and produce some amount of smoke !!










Wound the wire to the inside. Took some trials to get the correct gaps. Pull it enough so it grips nicely. Remember that hot wire will increase in length.






Tape the whole grip to prevent water and moisture. I replaced the insulation tapes in the picture here with gaffa tape (cloth tape) at the end because it is more water resistant.






Do the same for the throttle grip, allowing cable slack. I also tied the cable to secure the connections.
