Review on Chrome Kuryakyn 6212 Premium ISO Handlebar Grips with Standard Throttle Boss for Dual Cable Throttle Control - Fits 1982-2019 Harley-Davidson Motorcycles (1 Pair) by Peris Auditore

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Imprecise landing, large "gap " to control housing - 08 HD

2008 Harley Ultra Classic Wired Throttle. The product does NOT fit the bike, which is great. The side throttle grip is really "wobbly" and loose, and there is a large "gap" between the grip and the control housing. Like you, I've heard a lot about these grips, but because of their fit, I would never buy them again. I have emailed. Smoke about the fit, they said the grips fit the secondary bars oddly at times. Well, my handlebars are standard. The throttle/palm part is pretty good, but a sloppy fit will keep me from ever buying again. I'd also like to add that the grips are wide (left to right) so your palm on the throttle part is actually moving your hand to the right, away from the controls (rotary knob and radio). So if you have small hands you really need to let go of the grip, move your hand to the left (towards the controls) to access those controls. HD handles are not like that. So if you have a smaller hand, that's another reason to avoid it.

Pros
  • Handy Thing
Cons
  • So far so good
