R&G Heated Grips

[sjw]

Treated myself (along with Ram Mount ball) at the Bike Show to some R&G Heated Grips
The garage is freezing today, but thought I would at least offer it to the bike.
All seems well, but how the hell do I slacken those bar ends. ??

I remember them being tight on other bikes but not this bad
It could just be that I am getting feeble
I do have a 1/4 inch socket bit attachment for allen bolts, but it felt as if something was going to break
The handlebar pinch bolt undid really easily to fit that ram mount

I fitted Oxford ones last Winter, mine did undo easily, i was surprised as I have read others having difficulty.. My ratchet handle was no bigger than normal on 1/2" drive, nothing like Torque Wrench length...

Another attempt today.
simply cant shift it.
in fact I think I have now rounded it off, even with a really good fitting bit
What next /
