Cool Grips

Hey hawkriders. I wanted to replace the grips on my 98 and wondered if anybody knew the diameter of the bar so I can be lazy instead of going to take one grip odd and measure it. I know I am a slacker

Thanks I want to get something that looks a bit better and is not stretched out so much as the stock ones are. They feel like they move a bit before it truns the throttle.

Try taking the slack out of the primary throttle cable, you might be surprised to find that the grips are not loose?

Check out the Oury Brand grips, use grip glue and safety wire and then forgetta about it.
