Exactly what the doctor (road inspector) ordered!

For the money these pens can't be beat. Definitely a sport/track grip, very direct feel but very direct feel (not for touring). I will buy again.

Pros
  • Very good value for money
Cons
  • Damaged

Fits all things

Had these on my old dirt bikes and my zx10 and now the grom. Good grip feel, long lasting thin feel, not much cushioning so you feel vibration, but I prefer more direct bike contact feel.

Pros
  • Hands free
Cons
  • Nothing here

Exactly what I was looking for!

Exactly what I was looking for! a little grin and alcohol too. I am a picky white glove lover and would highly recommend this product for professionally maintained and fast heavy traction bikes!

Pros
  • Lots of positive emotions
Cons
  • Quick start guide

Reliable hold, good value, worth

They helped me replace my old worn out grips. They definitely add grip, you won't want to take it barehanded. When assembling, coat the inside of the handles and handles with hairspray and fasten quickly. This is a tight fit. After the hairspray has dried, the fixation is securely fixed. At first I tried using jets of air from an air compressor but it didn't work. Would buy again.

Pros
  • All the best!
Cons
  • Good but not great

Great grips - very happy

Replaced the original grips on my XSR900 with these and love them. They have a lower profile than the original grips and give the front end a slightly different look that I really like. Very easy to install. I cut off the old grips, cleaned them up and then sprayed some hairspray in the new grips and put them on. super easy. Time will tell how long they last but for now I'm happy with them. Considering the price and easy swappability, I'll probably do this every year.

Pros
  • Great for me
Cons
  • Modern

Perfect for the right buyer.

I think these grips deserve 5 stars with the right buyer. For me, however, they are almost perfect. Installation was pretty easy. But on my sv650 they didn't fully close the throttle and stuck out a little on the left side. The grip itself is phenomenal when you're shedding some weight. Because of this, a long ride can tire your hands a bit. To be honest, I don't regret the purchase. They look and feel good most of the time and feel good for the price.

Pros
  • Satisfied so far
Cons
  • Hard to say

Very grippy and comfortable, but not black.

I bought black/hard knobs and installed them on my FZ-07 '16. They are thinner than standard grips but much easier to grip. Black is actually gray, so if you really want black grips, you should probably get different ones. I'm not going to shoot a star for color but Renthal you should really change the description of these grips to dark gray or maybe charcoal instead of black. Both fit snug enough that I didn't need any glue, which is a positive. to me. An air compressor really helps get it…

Pros
  • Heavy Duty
Cons
  • Not the best

Diameter 29mm (1.14 ")

Summary: Good composition, seems thin when last set was 32mm (1.26"). rain and sun). The last set was 32mm, so 29mm seems a little thin. Use rubbing alcohol to wet the inside of the handle, put it on, and then use compressed air to dry the excess. Pros: Good quality tires. I had a kit (32mm, medium compound, different brand) Cons: The diameter is not indicated in the specs or on the box.

Pros
  • Easy to use
Cons
  • Nothing
