Grip Upgrade

[slomaro]

Looking to replace stock grips on my 96 gsx with something better. Can anyone recommend a website, or a brand, or give any advice? Thanks.

Check out Riva!

Riva, a distributer of racing packages and other parts for PWC's has grips for about $10 bucks..........

Here's a link. http://www.rivayamaha.com/RivaStore/SearchResult_db.asp

What about the newer style OEM SeaDoo grips?
They look nice and have different insert colors (red, yellow, pewter...).
Just wonder is they will work on my two skis '97 SPX and '99 GTXL.
THey look to have the same design as the GSXL but I don't see why they would not work on both. Both are held on by a screw that goes through the end of the grip. Unless newer skis have a different handle bar diameter.
Anybody know?

On ODI's website I see 120mm and 130mm. What is this measurement, the length of the grip? And how do I know which fits my 96 gsx? I guess I'm being a dumbass right? I could just measure the stock grips...

Im sure ALL the lock on grip are the same so you should be able to find a size that fits. Id try a mountian bike shop or powersports dealer for them. As far as fitting goes i dont know what size your bars are. best bet would be to contact them or find a store that sells them to find out what ones you need. youll need to find out the length of the bars where the grip goes and the outside diameter of the bar and if still unsure email odi and ask witch ones they have to fit your needs and give them the measurments

I'm with Fireball on this one, I want to know if the newer style OEM grips will work. Specifically these
http://www.amazon.com/SeaDoo-Handle...=sporting-goods&ie=UTF8&qid=1307627389&sr=1-2

like fireball, I don't see why they won't work, but the listing says "fits all 2000-2008 models". I have a 96 SPI but the grip appears to be the same. Does anyone know if these will work or not? I haven't gotten a response from the seller.

I'd like to avoid the trouble of making aftermarket grips work, if possible, as explained here. http://www.seadooforum.com/showthread.php?6316-Hand-Grip-Mod

I went with the "waffle" set from Hydro-Turf. Love it!
