Larger Grips?

Hey all,

Is there any place that sells larger handle bar grips?

I like the look of th standard grips on the zx6, but I have big hands.

Even just slightly bigger grips will do as it feel like a thin pipe I'm grabbing onto at the moment.

Hi Steve i,m sure heated grips are slightly bigger.If i guess right i think the cheaper ones are sometimes chunckier than the expensive ones.If i remember correctly you used to get thicker ones to help reduce vibration back in the day of the old M&P shop.or how,s about trying an off roading bike shop maybe worth a shot.Cheers the Noo.

I forgot to say i got R&G ones off ebay for 30 quid or so and they are a wee bit bigger than normal.If you,r not in a panic the bike shows on at inglston in a couple off week may be worth a look and you can get your hands on them litteraly.




FFS KURYAKYN.80 bucks don,t see you RUSSIAN oot to buy them.

I've got oxford heated grips, they are substantially thicker. HOWEVER if you're planning on riding fast thinner is the way to go, I have renthals for track and summer riding....2 finger braking whilst blipping the throttle with a giant grip isn't so easy!
