Hi folks,

Just managed to get my full M license yesterday!! It was a bit gruelling since I took a course + test... it lasted from 8am to 3:30pm.

That much riding really showed me how crappy the stock grips are on the Vino 125.

Anyways, I was thinking of ordering these grips:


Kuryakyn Universal ISO Grips, 7/8 inch Bars (http://www.cruisercustomizing.com/detail.cfm?Category_ID=112&manufacturer_ID=16&product_ID=6668&model_ID=51)

Are these the right size?

Do I have to do anything else to make them fit on the Vino 125?

Is this the kind of upgrade I could do easily myself or will I possibly mess up the throttle?


Thanks in advance for any tips!
Ken

I use the Kuryakan as well and the are the best in my opinion. All you have to do is follow the instructions for an easy install. Yes that is the correct size. You will need to cut the tabs off the throttle tube.

I wasn't expecting the price to be that high for grips. Any decent grips below $40 shipped?
