I'm also replacing my handle grips and bought some pro grips. Problem is that the original throttle grip is grooved for the plastic slots on the handle bar. The new grips have no slots. What do I do, just grind down the plastic or what? I know you guys have had to replace your stock grips with aftermarket ones. Help!!

Yeah, you just grind down the own plastic ridges. I did mine with a dremel. Pretty easy. I left the middle horizontal ridges but took off the big ones on both ends of grips. Hope that helps

Hey thanks, you know anything about finding bar ends other than sliders that are aftermarket. I thought the handle bars were hollow, but there not. Who makes them for the closed end type?
