Title: Handle Bar Grips
Post by VOLKY on 09/18/11 at 21:56:56

I want to replace the grips on my 2006 S40. I found this three on EBay and will like your opinion. Are they easy to replace? I'm more concern on the accelerator grip on how to replace. Are the pair of grips different inside diameter to fit the accelerator grip?

if you pick #1 or 3, your hands will hate you.

Some 1" grips are the same ID on both sides... fits certain Harley models... (don't buy these...)...
You want the one's that are bigger ID on the throttle side...

Swapping is an easy job...
Use rubbing alcohol as a lube to remove old and install new... it will give you about 30 seconds wiggle easy, then dry up and go away...

I have the grips in the middle. Bike came with 'em. I wasn't a fan at first but I'm getting use to them.. Must be a Irish thing? :-/

Sam:

Why? Are they too thick? I was leaning towards those.
