Parts made in China! Say it ain't so. That'll be the day I put Chinese parts on my Harley!

The company is focusing on providing heated grips to OEM manufacturers? Oh, the horror!

 

Well, he may be disgruntled but he could still be be telling the truth.. Considering the fact that in today's business climate the sole concern is maximizing profits no matter what it takes, it's no surprise that quality and service takes a back seat. And to what extent does the attitude of the individual worker impact a business? It's obvious to the average consumer that most workers today could not care less whether the company they work for lives or dies.The fast food industy is a perfect example of that.

 

I installed a set in Reaper's bars last year. One of the best mods I've ever done. I should have done it YEARS ago. Can't speak to how things are right now, but last summer, I had zero issues with the install, or any dealings with the company.

Cheers!

 

In the O.P's last world the cry was ... The sky is falling

 

You mean bite the hand that USED to feed him

If I was a prospective employer of this guy and I found something like this post in the interview/background process I'd steer clear. Sometimes people are genuinely treated poorly by employers and have a right to be angry about it. However, if I was suddenly out of a job I'd be using ALL my energy to get another one, not poor mouthing the company on the internet. OP, do you want to talk about your Harley Davidson motorcycle or riding it ?

Ain't it the truth.

OP, Harley puts Chinese parts on Harleys and they ain't worth a f**k; it is what it is.

 

I may buy a set just in spite of the OP's rant.

 

I have a Heat Demon vest that was a gift. I do ride in extreme cold sometimes in Wisconsin. It has been around awhile and sill works as it should. Companies change if they didn't they would fade away. Also have couple sets of HD heated gloves that have seen a lot of use they work well also. Just lucky again I got the package with the good stuff in it.

 

Well I bought a set, found NEW on Ebay for $112 with free shipping.

 

UPDATE: Receive the grip warmers Saturday, Installed Saturday night.
I have aftermarket bars and the grommet for where the wires go into the bar won't go in (bars are to thick at the dimpled area).
Deburred it well. While I had it apart I installed 8+ Throttle and idle cables (mine were a CH to short and left locked turns would increase the RPMs).
All in all install wasn't bad except for stuffing all the wire back into the bars, so far they work OK.
The kit came with a heater for TBW also. Maybe I'll figure out how to utilize it as an *** warmer.

 

Oh, Thanks OP
