    Time for new grips

    Just picked up a set of these:



    I know that they're expensive but I really like the feel and the blacks are a little more in line with the look I'm going for on my GS1000G to 1100G conversion.

    1998 Honda ST1100 (Daily long distance rider)
    1982 GS850GLZ (Daily rider when the weather is crap)

    Darn, with so many daily riders it's hard to decide which one to jump on next.;)

    What brand and model are they? Can you provide a ink?
    1983 GS 1100 Guided Laser
    1983 GS 1100 G
    2000 Suzuki Intruder 1500, "Piggy Sue"
    2000 GSF 1200 Bandit (totaled in deer strike)
    1986 Suzuki Cavalcade GV 1400 LX (SOLD)

    I find working on my motorcycle mildly therapeutic when I'm not cursing.

        They're Kuryakyn grips. Model number 6344 universal grip for 7/8" bars, black-on-black ISO grips. They do come in chrome (p/n 6241) as well but I felt that the black theme would work better in my case. I picked them up off of ebay as NOS for $53 delivered. One of a kind sale. Normally they go for around $68 to $73 new. Pricey but I really love the look and feel.
