Anyone know where to find decent scoot handgrips? 4-1/2 without being hard plastic? Found 1 or 2 choices on feebay but most cycle grips are 5" & are too long , most scoot shops carry the cheezy replacements.

Maybe I'll do the old school laced up leather grip cover thing? There are soo many choices for 5"+ grips in 7/8. But very limited options on 4-1/2 .that most scoots use.

They're pretty soft and grippy. Not like sticky grippy like some aftermarket ones I've felt- some literally leave black stuff on your hands! but definitely softer and grippier than the hard-feeling stock ones.

Im still waiting on my ProGrip Super Bike Grips. They should be here tomorrow. If I like them I will put them on my other scooter. I took one of the oem grips off yesterday to check em out. I could break rocks with how hard they are. I knew if I wanted comfort I had to change em a long time ago. I will post an update as to how it all goes.

I like the Progrip 724 dual density. Also the Progrip 723 is single density and just a bit more durable than the 724.
I have some PG 842's and 761's on the way. I am hoping they will have a little more vibration isolation than what I currently use.
All of the ones I get come from amazon or feebay and cost $10 - $15 a set
A installation trick I read somewhere is to spray canned hairspray in them to slip them on. It works GREAT!

I like the grips, except for the bar ends I got. Anybody got pics of their bar ends? What do you guy's use?

Hi, curious if anyone has any tips for the removal of the stock hard plastic grips on an ATM50? I am concerned specifically with separating the throttle tube from the grip being removed without damaging it.
TIA!
