cool forgot about that post read it sometime ago.

 

Please tell me there is a celebratory beer after the installation?

I know it's only minor surgery but every man needs a beer to celebrate. Right?

 

ProGrip GP Gel 717. Best grips ive had so far i love em.Got them from motorcyclesuperstore.com
Air nozzle with a small tip is the best way to get on and off whole process takes 10 mins.

 

good looking grips. is that a GPS mount ??

 

Yup RAM mount bolted to the tank bolts for a nuvi 760.

Look nice and they feel great too.I was just on Motorcycle Superstore again and couldnt actully find any grips this is weird.

 

Ok stupid question maybe...when you order the pro grips 699 from say Motorcycle Superstore, are those sold as a pair, or is the price per grip?

 

Sold as a pair.

 

Just ordered a set of 699s on the recomendations! Hope I like them, I was hesitant to buy an item as such without actually touching it but you guys have not led me wrong so far !

 

Yes I just ordered a set too from my local dealer, supposed to arrive Monday.

 

What model did you get?
Dont forget to post pics of grips installed.
Dont forget to do the swap somewhere with a air compressor and nozzle.:thumbsup:

 

+1 on the 699's guys! Got them in a few days ago and just finished installing them. A much more comfortable grip than stock at a great price!

 

I just picked up the 699's today, looking forward to them since all the great reviews!

 

well picked up a pair of PROGRIPS MODEL 719 BLACK RED will put them on tomorrow.

 

Just put on some progrip 717's....

 

guys I have a 95' VFR I wanted to get these for my bike :Pro Grip 719 RVGS Open End Gel Grip - Street Bike - Motorcycle Superstore

but noticed that they are 120mm as opposed to the 699's which are 125mm. (Pro Grip 699 Open End Sportbike Gel Grip - Street Bike - Motorcycle Superstore)

will they fit? is the mm's the diameter of the tube?

thanks.
