Kuryakyn grips?

"Will Kuryakyn chrome grips fit on my R65? Thanks."

Yes, but there is a drawback.

Your R65 kickstand will crack off, piercing the engine as the bike tips over, carrying out a final act of seppuku.

Cheers,

Are you serious? How will putting on new grips crack the kickstand? If you are being sarcastic, which I doubt, I am not very good at picking it up.
 
Yes, I think you are being taken for a ride. I don't think I would put chrome grips on a beemer, but that is a matter of choice. I think the actual issue is the throttle grip; beemers are kind of funny on that. I tried to change grips on my bike with an aftermarket rubber brand, did not work. I got them on, but the throttle kept sticking. If you try it, let us know how it turns out. My food for thought anyway.... :eat :drink
