    I hear ya! That's one thing I don't like about the breakaway.
    I checked with two local shop that do aluminum
    Anodizing. They both quoted me $100!
    I decided not to do it at this time but I have a feeling
    that I'd be taking it apart n getting it anodized in black
    So it looks better on my black bike.
    You know how that goes (spending $$$ on bikes) lol

    I too had one previously I would be afraid that the set screws would damage the heating element, and or wires.
    Just sayin good luck! Kaoko was my next choice, would love cc. but its riding season maybe winter time?

    The set screws go into the adaptor ring.

    The issue is the cable hanging up.

    Mine is installed and am glad I did.

    Safest throttle lock out there.

    Have one on my VFR1200 and had one on my VTX1800.

    Look @ item # 22 in this link. It is a hard poly material and the set screws with not penetrate through it.

    Because the adaptor ring displaces the force from the set screws across the grip surface there will be no issues with wires being cut or shorting.

    Would be nice if they optioned a black unit but I am OK with it standing out. Get a lot of people asking about it @ stops.

    My Kaoko operates in 'stealth mode'

    No 'contraption' with linkage / wire snaggler hanging out,,,

    No 'what's that?' conversations,,,

    I have the same grips. I checked the website and the FAQ states that it will work with the Kury grips.
