Cushion Grips

[Volvi]

Im after a set of cushion grips (on handlebar) that will add some diameter to the oem size. Haybusa Rod seems to have a good pair. anyone else with some good advise which and from where?

[Blackzook]

Volvi,
I was after larger diameter grips last year and all I could find that was bigger than stock were heated grips. These are normally the same diameter as the bar ends so much bigger than stock.

They cost me about $80.00 from MCA and are fantastic when the weather turns cold and more comfortable the rest of the time with the larger dia. Bruce

[Volvi]

well tell ya the truth, after wearing them bling gloves them grips feel like toothpicks, glove being tough and well padded. and hand was getting crampy trying to envelope the toothpicks.

DJ, if them are the last pair to be had Iz'a cummin after u.

[Volvi]

Thx for the pics Rob, yes am aware of those grip types tho more suited to the cruiser me thinks, also want to retain bar ends (weights). i have a pair like dj on order. But thx for your info.

DJ, did you glue them on?

[Djpete]

no glue Volvi straight on.
The throttle one is a smidgen loose but I figure that will tighten in a few days.
I actually love the look of the ones above but would also be concerned about no bar weights re vibrations...? Cheers,
Pete
