Sourcing old type hand grips
« on: September 04, 2012, 10:47:23 AM »
Back in 1994, when I first purchased my new K75RT the bike came with an absolutly wonderful set of hand grips.  They were skinny and also very "spongy", but very resiliant. From what I've been told, they are no longer available.  Someone mentioned a brand called Jomar(?), but said I'd be lucky to get a couple of years out of them.  Is there any way I can get a set of the old grips?  Thanks!

Amazon has grip puppies for about $10.  They cover you old grip so may be a little fatter than the stock.  Love mine.
