Looks like that qat is grey in colour..gonna have to buy some grips now to colour match the other side.

Or is that the bit under the grip you cant see, and the existing rubber gets used ??

It's the throttle tube under the grip. Which one did you buy then cause I have not seen any Grey ones. It's a good Mod, a vast improvement. Saves little wrist strain from having to give that extra twist.

Just peel off the old grip and use that. You won't see anymore than you do at the moment :thumbup:

Will this fit a VTR1000R? - only SP2 is listed (and oh, I'm so tempted... :D )

I'd like a bit less movement but 1/6 seems a bit extreme. Probably chuck me off the back if I hit a speedbump!

That's not Grey :lol: It's White :)

Yes it will fit the Storm, it's listed for a CBR600 or Blade but does fit. It's the same as the rest of us have got. :wink: They sell for between £15 and £30.
