help with 15f grips?

[ratking20]

i want new grips, i would like to get odi grips, either rogue or ruffian....

do i need 120mm or 130mm. its a 2015 15f. do i need to cut any of the handle bars off because i dont want to do that. or was that just on the older ones?????

The ODI's will fit when you grind the flanges to the O.D. of the bar.

Cutting the end of the bar off isn't a big deal. Takes a few minutes with a hack saw. Just put 120mm ODI Rouges on mine last week.

DavidR .....do u have pics?

The factory grips are molded onto the bar so they must be cut off. Then you cut as close to the washer as you can get to make sure you have enough bar for the lock rings to clamp onto.

I do the same thing as davidr 120mm off amazon for 20 bucks!

Only recommendation i would like to make is to buy the bmx donuts that go on the handle grips. My thumb rubs againsts the kill switch and always get cut and end up bleeding

Are the grips sturdy as far as slippage? It's hard to beat the stock grips since they are molded on the bar with the bup on the end, but they are very uncomforatable! I have a set of odi rogue and am debating putting them on. Your input would help!

I did the ODI's on mine, but opted to get a slightly longer handlebar to accommodate 130mm grips. The 130's will fit the stock bar, but are too tight against the controls. Bought an anodized aluminum ATV bar and used the 130mm ODI's for a little bigger grip area.

The ODI's grip the bar really tight and am confident they'll keep holding. Can always tighten them up, if needed.

Great Tip, I cut off the ends in under 5 mins with a saws-all and bought these for $7 on Amazon and they match the color perfect!
