Review on 🏍️ Kuryakyn 6372 Premium Kinetic Handlebar Grips: Chrome, 1 Pair - Universal Fit for Motorcycles with 1" Diameter Bars by Mike Krzywicki

Looks Great Steering Wheel and Components

Fit these to my 2011 Kaw Voyager 1700. I have always been amazed by the very high quality Kuryakyn pens. The only reason I don't give it 5 stars is that with these particular grips, after a few tries I had to glue the edge of the rubber to the inside edge of the grip with the supplied glue because it kept pushing in and folding causing the rubber inserts jump out and deform. After that it stayed in place and I applied dish soap to the inside edge. I got it about 1/4 inch from where I wanted it and couldn't move it. I used a rubber mallet to pound the rest of the way. Now it's perfect. I didn't use glue on the side of the throttle body and didn't cut the tabs on the stock plastic throttle bushing as suggested in the instructions. It's very cozy. I glued the side of the clutch and everything went without problems. If you've never done this before, use 4 or 5 lines of glue from the end of the rod to about the middle. Friction will accelerate the glue along the rest of the rod as you press on it. Make sure it's level before you attach the handlebars as you only have 5 or 6 seconds before the superglue sets. It's pretty much set at the point where you have full grip on the bar. They look way better than stock and I will never have to do that again.

Pros
  • Quick Change
Cons
  • Security
