Honda Grom Review in Handlebars section

I ordered this handlebar for my 2019 Honda Grom. I was worried the bars were too wide but they are pretty good anyway. They don't look too far at Grom either, which worried me even more. Installation wasn't too difficult, but some cables had to be rerouted as the poles are wider and slightly taller than standard poles. It is also recommended to drill holes in the bars to properly install the electronic controls. I skipped this step and used duct tape to bite into these ledges. So far this works, but if there are any problems in the future I'll just unscrew the electronic controller and drill a hole where the tape has worn out. Steering with these bars feels a lot more over the top than stock bars. That's because the handlebars are wider, which gives more leverage when countersteering. Hard stops also feel a lot better on these bars. I did feel the stock handlebars flex on hard stops, despite being very strong. So far these wheels are good. If you are looking to replace your stock bars and like the upright position that the stock bars offer, I would go with them.
