| Hi guys
My left heated grip is rotating about 1/8" on the handle bar and driving me nuts. Just feels loose. Is there a way to tighten that up some how or that how they all are??
Thanks |

There are two torx head screws that secure it to the bar. One or both is probably backed out. You have to roll back the rubber grip flange a little to get to the screws.

| Hey thanks Turk! Which end should I roll back? Or both ends? Should I take off the end cap first? |

The end nearest the clutch perch.
And, each of those 2 torx screws has a hole that it goes into, it doesn't just press against the outside of the bar.... so make sure it's properly lined up....

| Just wanted to thank Turk for the great advice! It was right on. No more wiggle in the grip.
Thanks again Turk!
