FAQs
Are these grips compatible with heated grips?
These grips are designed as standalone replacements; they are not intended for use over existing heating elements.
Do I need to use glue with these grips?
While the tight fitment is often sufficient, using grip-specific adhesive is recommended for a secure, permanent fit, especially for racing applications.
What is the handle diameter compatibility?
They are designed for standard 22 mm (7/8 inch) bars, common on the vast majority of motorcycles.
Can I install bar-end weights with these?
Yes, the open-end design is specifically intended to allow for the installation of bar-end weights, sliders, or mirrors.
How do I remove the old grips safely?
If they are bonded with glue, you may need to use a razor blade to cut them off, being extremely careful not to score the underlying throttle tube.
Troubleshooting
Grips sliding or twisting during use
Ensure the handlebar was completely degreased before installation and consider using safety wire in the provided slots.
Difficult to slide onto the handlebar
Use compressed air or a light application of hairspray/grip glue as a lubricant, which will become tacky once dried.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Preparation: Remove your old grips and thoroughly clean the handlebar and throttle tube with isopropyl alcohol to remove any residual glue or oils.
Dry Fit: Slide the grips on to check for clearance. If they are slightly tight, use a small amount of compressed air to assist with sliding them into position.
Securing: If you intend to use lock wire, ensure the wire is tightened evenly within the provided grooves to avoid snagging your gloves.
Adhesion: For permanent installation, apply a thin layer of specialized grip glue, avoiding excess that may squeeze out onto the grip surface.
Maintenance: Periodically inspect the grips for signs of wear. Clean with mild soap and water, avoiding harsh degreasers that can dry out the rubber compound.
