hand grips

[djvmax07]

Need new grips what size are the handle bars? and what is a good grip..

Standard 7/8 bars. I have these on black drag bars http://www.kuryakyn.com/Products/4022/Gloss-Black-ISO-Grips but they are a larger diameter so they could be an issue for smaller hands.

7/8 bars.
Kuryakyn and driven D3 seem to be popular choices round here.

Still 7/8"....I like Pro-Grip grips, they're cheap and comfortable.

+1, and durable.

Everyone is correct in the bar size (.875" for those mechanics out there). I stock/sell the Driven D3's and the Kuryakyns though there are a ton of other brands to pick from!

I liked the OEM grips so well, I hung on to them for over 29 years - literally. Still on the same set. lol

I prefer narrower grips in order to use with gloves so i get similar to sports bike ones, for the euro guys the 7/8 is same as 22mm.

 

[Diablotin]

I tried both but still prefer the narrow ones too.

That's funny, on my cruising Vmax with forward controls, Maxgasser, bar risers, I prefer fat old Kuryakyns but on my solo seat standard peg drag bar set up I want skinny thin rubber grips like Pro Grips.

I'm considering something like these when I do my rebuild:

Has anyone had any experience with them ?

I saw these Chinese knock off's too:

They really don't look any different, but I wonder if the Quality is the same.

 

[Diablotin]

They are similar to the d3 in term of quality. I got a set of dimotiv ones they looked the same than the chinese ones I had before. The only think to look into is that sometimes the color fades.

I tried progrips but they gave me arm pump so bad I had to put my stockers back on, smaller grips just don't work for me

Thanks.

Has anyone tried the Avon grips? They make great tires, and the grip look pretty good also..

Does anyone know if these allow for bar end mirrors?

Thank you. The black grips with chrome mirrors might actually be what I am after. I think it might look good together.
