Title: OEM Grip Diameter
Post by: paulie on June 05, 2008, 05:52:51 PM
OK, i realize this is a very stupid question that I could easily find out myself  :roll:

What's the OD of the OEM non-heated grips?

Need to order a pair of grip puppies today, and don't have access to my bike at the moment. Large size supposedly fits 1.45-1.65" grips, Smalls 1.25-1.45"

thanks in advance, hopefully someone knows this off the top of their head  8)

Don't know the OD of the grips, but I installed Grip Puppies on my Tiger. It felt like I was holding two Coke cans in my hands -- much, much too big. I tried to tolerate it, used them a time or three, but ultimately discarded them. YMMV.

My factory non-heated grips measure 1.25 inches in diameter.

thanks stretch!

and yea, my old KZ had "fat" grips and i loved them, i'm still not used to how thin the tiger's grips are. plus i get a little buzziness at about 4k RPM (cruisin speed - 60mph in 6th for me), that i'd like to try and alleviate.

cheers

Just measured to outside diameter of the heated grips on my 05.

They come up as 1.43 UK inches at the widest section.
