The handles are products that wear out quickly and need to be changed several times par year. Indeed, with the force from your tight hands, abrasion of the gloves, bad weather, or simply because they are not pretty, you will have to replace your grips and grip coverings par new items! Choosing the grip fitting should be done with care, especially since it can help to make the bike look nicer, while being more comfortable.
Le choice handles is an important element for a good grip of the handlebars and the levers of your two wheels.
On a mécaboite, a scooter or a moped the handles are essential to control the acceleration as well as the general trajectory of the machine. The original handles are often ergonomic and hug the hand of the motorcyclist well.
Acceleration control cannot be done without the handle grip. This controller is located on the right side of the handlebar of the motion.
There are two types of handle grips for motorcycle, scooter, moped and quad.
- The "motorcycle" handles : the left grip has an inner diameter of 22mm and the right grip has an inner diameter of 25mm (due to the throttle grip).
- The "trigger" handles : These are for quads. The inner diameter of the two handles is 22mm. In other words, it is two left motorcycle handles.
The choice of the brand of coating handles remains the most important element when making your choice. You will find on our shop many brands of handles very appreciated in the world of two wheels. Find them below.
The color is a very important choice too, car most of the time the motorcyclist wishes to put his cockpit in perfect harmony with the rest of his machine. He will choose par example for red Domio grips if he has a motorcycle with red fairings and stickers!
The main differences between grip models relate to the quality and flexibility of the rubber. More clearly, we generally find:
- Extra soft handlebar grips: comfortable, but very short life and high price.
- Soft handlebar grips: more longevity than the previous model while remaining comfortable, the right compromise.
- Standard handlebar grips: comfort is not always there, but they are very cheap and very resistant.
- Hard handlebar grips: you may be able to keep them for 2 years, but forget about comfort.
- Handlebar grips "custom": with drawings, very pretty on a moped but of no use on a competition motorcycle.
On a motorcycle cross (among others), the pet peeve of the pilot are the blisters that appear inside the hand, but also on the outer base of the thumb. To counter or slow down their formation, there are "donuts", small neoprene rings that are quite effective in use. Some manufacturers supply them with their handles, all the more reason to think twice when choosing.
Foam grips are made of high density foam as a replacement for standard grips. The foam grips help filter vibrations and therefore reduce the risk of tingling, numbness and blisters, especially on motorcycles that vibrate a lot.
To choose the right grips, you just need to know if you have an acceleration system par gas handle or trigger. It's simple, on all vehicles such as motorcycles, scooters and mopeds it is an acceleration par handful of gas. It is only on certain quads that we find a trigger.
Motorcycle type grips: inner diameter 22mm (left handle) and 25mm (right handle)
Trigger type grips: 22mm inside diameter for both
