here are the blue and gold pazzos
So far i really like them..
I have smaller hands (no comments please) and larger diamater hot grips and was finding smooth clutch action tiresome
I run in the #2 position because I feel #1 engages the clutch to earlyImage

Looks good.

Where did you get them from?

Are they a short leaver or standard?

I got them from my local bike store but you can get them on line
www.pazzoracing.com Langley british columbia I think
they have a build a lever section on their site..so you can get an idea of the different colour combinations..
The ones in the picture are the long ones and come the anodized blue colour...
I am a machinist and I know what quality machining looks like..These are very nice.The way they machined them gives them the mechanical look.
they are not a polished finish.

Farley,
I like the larger diameter grips you have in the pic. Where did you get them from?
I don't like the small diameter of the stock grips. Feels like I'm holding on to a tiny stick and my hands get tired after a bit.
Is the throttle side grip hard to change out??
Any info is appreciated!!!

The larger grips are "hot grips" heated grips
they work well but I did a lot of work to wire them in neatly and then I had to machine up a switch holder because I wanted it on the Left side
Hot grips sells a switch holder that will only work on the right side in my opinion.
I am not totally happy with the housing so Mark 2 will be coming up this winter
I have access to a lathe so cutting the extra bits off the throttle side was no big deal I used a reamer to open up the grip ends the little bit more than the reccomended 7/8 to ensure there would be no hang ups on the throttle side with the bars and that way they would slide far enough on to the original position ..I guess I missed the part on there website that says the inside length is shorter..also search for grip puppies a not heated grip size enhancer that just slips over the stock ones...I think
