New Grips are installed!!!!

[zzneonzz]

I just had a set of kuryakyn ISO's installed on the spyder and OMG they make a huge difference in comfort. Granted I only got to test them for about 10 miles while on my way back to work but i felt zero vibration and my hand didn't cramp at all. If anyone is looking for grips i would strongly recomend them.

I beleive you have the wrong grips on order according to Kuryakyn the 6240 is the universal 1in grips, the 6241 is the universal 7/8in grips.

I ordered Universal ISO grips for 7/8" Handlebars #6241

The onese you ardered are for 1" bars and are going to be to big. The 7/8" still had to have a little tape on the left side bar to take up a bit more space. And the throttle side fit like a glove.

+1 on the Iso's. Kuryakyn doesn't make much stuff that I like, but the ISO grips are a must have. I've had them on my last 3 bikes and immediately put them on the Spyder.

But do they work with the Throttlemeister??

 

[zzneonzz]

Not sure but they have a nice throttle boss add on for them.

But to answer your question...

Q: Will the Throttlemeister work with the Kuryakyn ISO grips?

A: Unfortunately, the Throttlemeister will not work with Kuryakyn grips. The Kuryakyn grip is a metal grip with a small diameter hole. The metal on metal contact would not work and the small hole is not big enough for our mounting hardware to fit through.

I heard that it is easy to screw up the throttle with the glue. I have a set of grips on order, what should I look out for at installation?

I had my dealer install mine but i know it was a very tight fit on the throttle sleeve and the glue dry's almost instantly.

I think I just saw a post where Lamonster machined out the end caps and is now using a throttlemeister kit with his grips

The ISO grips are definately very comfortable. These are the Universal ISO grips for 7/8 bars, just had them powder coated is all.
