THE WORLD'S FIRST AND BEST HEATED GRIPS

In 1976 Jim Hollander started work on the first heated handgrips. It was his 5th and final year as member of the U.S. ISDT team for off-road motorcycles, and he was the top American Trophy Team rider at the Austria 6-Days.

The weather was frigid. Jim knew that warming fingers on engine fins was not the best solution to frozen hands. So he started making heated grips to use in the 6-Days races.

Model Ergo2-520-760 - kit - for 7/8" Handlebars So Jim went back to school for a Mechanical Engineering degree. He turned a homework assignment into a hot handgrip design that would stand up to the rigors of the International Six Days Trial. By 1981 he had developed a production heated grip.

In 1982, the Top American ISDT rider Jeff Fredette used his limited edition dirt bike model of HOT GRIPS® throughout the demanding event held in Europe. HOT GRIPS® quickly becoming the snowmobile industry's largest selling accessory. The product line has expanded to include motorcycles, ATVs, and snow-throwers. People have also installed them on skid-steers, bulldozers, forklifts, and the control sticks of airplanes.

Today Jim Hollander is the owner and president of HOT GRIPS® Mfg., Inc.
