I'd like to replace my OEM BMW handlebar grips with something a little more comfortable and stylish, I'm not a purist.
From what I understand BMW Airhead grips are 22mm and the rest of the world is 7/8". The selection of 22mm grips seems to be very limited. Is it possible to make a 7/8" grip work on BMW bars and throttles?
I saw these grips on e-bay(see photo below). They're on a 1978 bike. Not only do they look comfortable, I think they look pretty cool. I emailed the seller, but he refused to answer my questions about his grips. So... does anyone recognize them? I'm thinking' they must be 22mm since they're on a R100.
PS: I've done a lot of google searches trying to find these grips, w/o any luck.
