Willdo, Don. But..... there was a group purchase??  I missed it?    Dang!  I should read more forums....

Jim

Yes, that's what got all this Heat Demon's banter started.  Several months back now.  The Mike you mention in your post that follows the one cited above is the guy I worked with then.  He was outstanding to work with.  I'm not surprised that if they had any way to offer a solution that he'd go out of his way to make it happen.

I just glanced back at some notes I'd maintained from the time of the group buy.  The company was offering an all black version.  In fact of the 15 or so bought here two or three were black.  Apparently Mike is going to try to find some as yet unpackaged parts and mix and match.

So do we have interest in a group buy of chrome with black buttons?   

I suggested Mike drop by the site for a nosy around.

Jim, if last time was any indication a group buy discount will require a minimum of 10 kits purchased.  It also won't matter whether they are black or chrome kits.  He'll ask for a total number of 10 without concern over whether they are black or chrome.

One caveat though.  When we did the group purchase before the mftr was the only source.  Kuryakyn had not yet started handling the product.  Kuryakyn itself is no discounter; as everyone is aware.  But M&M and a few others will discount Kuryakyn products.  Enough so that the individual purchases will be about the same as what we were offered for group discount before.

Since you are mixing and matching parts within a kit you're of course working directly with the company.  The company seems good enough to deal with and promises outstanding warranty and support service too.  Guys like that I appreciate patronizing.  The group buy discount just may not be the end all and be all this time though.

Yes, that's correct I think Don.  If we got another group buy together (I'm in!) then I think he'd do as many in black/black, chrome/chrome, black/chrome & chrome/black (for those guys with black housings and chrome switch caps, though I doubt there are that many around here) as we wanted.

As you say, his helpfulness is outstanding!    What a shame he doesn't work for all of the vendors we don't get such a response from!  

He's had a browse round the site, (and this thread), and was v. impressed.

It will be for those that want the chrome housing/black switch!

I just finished installing the chrome version on my CUSE2.
This is the way the Factory should be doing it.
Beautiful and very functional switch, easy, clean wiring and you can run any grip you want!

As long as these Heat Demons stand up to normal use, "2 "warm" thumbs up!"

PS. I check the heat output on these suckers..... In a warm shop with a full battery, engine off, I got a IR tempurature reading of 110* on the left one and 106* on the throttle. The metal parts of my grip was so warm, I could not keep my finger on it!

I will be liking these!!

Count me in, wish I had seen it BEFORE I did the bars

That's the only thing I get disgusted about.  Doing something to the bike and THEN someone (not mentioning name(s) )  comes up with something new and great to put on after I was just there.  It will never end, and that's probably good.
