Default Hand Grip / Bar End Problem

I got new Pro-Grip hand grips for my F2, and the clutch side grip seems to be too short.

There's about a 1/2" gap between the bar end and the end of the grip.

Can I buy different bar ends to fix this, or am I stuck with it?

Default RE: Hand Grip / Bar End Problem

Hey Hershey,
I had a similiar encounter when I replaced my stock grips with gel grips. My bar ends didn't match well. I only had maybe 1/8" gap. I pulled the grips back a slight amount, but I didn't have a half inch gap to deal with. Have you contacted the seller/store and asked them for a remedy or if possibly they had a mismatched set that you received?

Hope you find a positive solution. I will be watching this post to see what kinds of info you get as I still dont have the issue with my grips resolved they way I'd like.

I had similar problem. My Gel Grips that i put on were fine on the Clutch side but the throttle side is about an 1/8th inch two short also, I was wondering if there was a way to push the bar weight into the handbar further so the bar end was closer to the grip. Will post pics if wanted.

My problem is on the clutch side, more than 1/8" too short though... I haven't looked further into it yet, sorry!
