Product Information

Full details

This guide is for owners of Piaggio VESPA Granturismo 125-200 models seeking enhanced grip and durability for their handlebars. The key benefit is improved control and comfort through a secure, non-slip surface. A potential caveat is the open-ended design, which may require consideration for handlebar end weights. These Domino grips are crafted from robust thermoplastic rubber, featuring a distinctive punched dot pattern for superior traction and an open-ended design accommodating bar end weights. They measure 128mm in length and are engineered for standard 22mm handlebars with a 26mm throttle sleeve.

FAQs

Are these grips suitable for all Piaggio Vespa models?

These specific grips are designed for the Piaggio VESPA Granturismo 125-200 models and standard 22mm handlebars. Compatibility with other Vespa models or non-standard handlebars is not guaranteed.

Do I need to buy bar end weights separately?

Yes, these grips feature an open-ended design that *allows* for the installation of bar end weights, but the weights themselves are not included and must be purchased separately if desired.

What is the material of these grips?

The grips are made from durable thermoplastic rubber.

How do I clean these grips?

Clean the grips with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.

What is the length of the grips?

The grips have a length of 128mm.

What size handlebars do these grips fit?

They are designed to fit standard 22mm handlebars with a 26mm throttle sleeve.

Can I use these grips if I don't plan on using bar end weights?

Yes, the open-ended design will still function, but the very end of the grip will be exposed. You may consider purchasing compatible end caps if you do not wish to use bar end weights.

Troubleshooting

Grips feel too tight or won't slide on.

Ensure the handlebar is clean and free of debris. A small amount of isopropyl alcohol or grip lubricant (check compatibility with adhesive) can aid installation. Do not force the grip.

Throttle side grip sticks or doesn't return properly.

Verify that the throttle tube and cables are not obstructed. Ensure the grip is not glued too far onto the throttle tube, preventing its movement. Trim excess grip material if necessary, but do not compromise structural integrity.

Grips feel sticky or gummy over time.

This can sometimes occur with certain types of grip materials. Try cleaning the grips thoroughly with a mild soap and water solution. If the issue persists, the grips may need replacement.

Bar end weights do not fit securely.

Ensure you are using bar end weights designed for open-ended grips. Some weights have an internal expanding mechanism that requires proper installation within the grip's end.

  • Open-ended design allows for customization with bar end weights.
  • Designed for a comfortable and secure feel during rides.
  • Direct fit for Piaggio VESPA Granturismo models.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Compatibility:

These grips are specifically designed for Piaggio VESPA Granturismo 125-200 models. They are intended for standard 22mm handlebars with a 26mm throttle sleeve. Always confirm your handlebar diameter before installation.

Setup:

  1. Carefully remove the old hand grips from your handlebars.
  2. Clean the handlebar surface to remove any dirt or adhesive residue.
  3. Apply a suitable grip adhesive (not included) to the handlebar or the inside of the new grip, following the adhesive manufacturer's instructions.
  4. Slide the new Domino grips onto the handlebars, ensuring the throttle-side grip can rotate freely.
  5. If using bar end weights, install them according to their specific instructions after the grips are secured.
  6. Allow the adhesive to cure completely before riding.

Care:

Clean the grips periodically with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners, as these can degrade the thermoplastic rubber. Ensure the grips are dry before use. Periodically check for signs of wear and tear and replace if necessary.
