FAQs

Are these grips suitable for beginners?

Yes, the vibration-dampening features can make them more comfortable for beginners, reducing hand fatigue.

What type of grip adhesive is recommended?

It is recommended to use a high-quality grip adhesive specifically designed for motorcycle grips. Check with your local motorcycle parts supplier for recommendations.

How long do these grips typically last?

Lifespan varies based on riding conditions, frequency of use, and care. However, the anti-rip tip and durable compound are designed for extended use compared to standard grips.

Can I use these grips with handguards?

Yes, these grips are compatible with most standard handguard installations. Ensure proper clearance during installation.

Do I need to cut the grip for throttle or clutch?

These are typically designed as full grips and may require modification or cutting if your controls have specific integrated elements. Consult your motorcycle's service manual or a professional if unsure.

What is the advantage of the 'Tri Density' construction?

The 'Tri Density' construction uses three different rubber compounds to optimize comfort, grip, and vibration absorption. The inner core provides stability, a mid-layer dampens vibration, and the outer layer offers tackiness and durability.

Are these grips available in other colors?

This specific product is the orange variant. Pro Taper often offers their grip models in various colors; please check other listings or the Pro Taper catalog for alternatives.

Troubleshooting

Grip feels loose or spins on the handlebar.

The grip adhesive may not have cured properly, or insufficient adhesive was used. Remove the grip, clean both surfaces, and reapply fresh grip adhesive, ensuring it cures fully.

Excessive vibration is still felt.

Ensure the grip is fully seated and bonded to the handlebar. Check for any damage to the grip that might be compromising its vibration-dampening properties. Consider using a thicker pair of riding gloves if further dampening is desired.

Grip shows signs of tearing or ripping prematurely.

This may be due to excessive abrasion or improper installation. Ensure the anti-rip tip is not being subjected to undue stress. Regular cleaning and avoiding contact with sharp objects can help prolong life.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. Ensure the handlebar is clean and free of any old grip residue.
  2. Apply a suitable grip adhesive (not included) to the inside of the grip or the handlebar, following the adhesive manufacturer's instructions.
  3. Carefully slide the grip onto the handlebar, ensuring the inner core (Ultra-Bonding Black inner core) grips the bar securely. Align the grip for optimal comfort and control.
  4. Allow the adhesive to cure completely according to its instructions before riding.

Compatibility:

These grips are designed for standard 7/8" diameter handlebars, common on most dirt bikes and motorcycles. Always confirm your handlebar diameter before purchase.

Care:

To maintain the grip's performance and appearance:

  • Clean regularly with a mild soap and water solution. Avoid harsh solvents or abrasive cleaners that can degrade the rubber compound.
  • Use a damp cloth for general cleaning. Ensure the grips are dry before riding.
  • Periodically check the grip's security on the handlebar.
