| Posted : 28 Sep 2013 - 16:43 Post title : Aftermarket grips | | Just bought my first triumph a month ago. Bought the 2013 Storm and was wondering about grips. Can I use any brand as long as they're for 1 inch bars. Don't want the same ol Avon or Kurys, no offense. Thanks for any help.

The throttle side has grabby ridges and nubs on the the twister part. I removed them with a razor knife so they couldn't be felt through the grip, and can no longer use triumph grips - oh dear.

It's really the only correct and logical choice.
