I am about to order some Rizoma Grips: RIZOMA GRIPS - moorespeedracing.co.uk Has anyone replaced their grips with these or others? Is it easy?
Put heated grips on the Ducati (could have done with them this morning). The most difficult thing was getting the old ones off. I started off trying to be all neat and tidy and tease them off but it soon descended into swearing and a scalpel. If the throttle side has to be glued trust me, make sure it's well and truly stuck before you use it in anger. I glued both sides in the end, but they were Oxford ones, not Rizoma. They may be a tighter fit.
solid ally padded grips? wow, shortcut to blisters if ever there was one. Cant beat a set of Renthal grips!
I have Renthal grips, I rolled the old ones off and fitted a Q/A throttle at the same time. The grips are different sizes, use renthal grip adhesive when re-fitting, helps to slide on and holds in place. Renthal do different compounds and thickness.
Pro grips mate, best I've used so far and they do take some buzz out the handle bars on longer journeys (tricks picked up from having twins for years) I'm actually after some for my blade so can keep you posted if you like? Had been Getting them from M&P but I'll wait til the bike show as you normally get a £5 voucher off they're stand to use online
Renthal soft grips for me . 6 quid a set and very soft , I start wearing holes in them after a few thousand miles
Got them on my GSXR never had a problem With them really comfy no vibration and do look very sexy especially if you have nice levers, but if you buy them you will have to buy the reservoir to, I'll drop you some pics on later if I get chance!
These are the ones I like the look of: SCS - Progrip_The Race Passion Company Only problem is I can't find a UK dealer who has them with the red internal sleeve.
Must admit the pics on their website are crap. If memory serves correct I think they are around £20-£25. Apparently popular with Ducatis & WSB teams. The Yanks seem to like em: Pro Grip SCS Carbon Grip & Throttle Kit : Honda CBR 1000RR Motorcycle Forums: 1000RR.net
