Renthal Grips

Ive bought a pair of renthal grips for my NC29 and had to cut them down to length because my NC29 clip ons are 210mm., And the Shortest renthal Grips I can find are 225mm.

Now ive pushed my brake/clutch levers right up to the yoke, and put my switch gear on as far as it will go before fouling on the levers. And still only have 110mm of clip on.

Is there anywhere I can get shorter grips because I don't like the look of them cut down. Especially the renthal grips because they have a "rolled" style end on them which gets fatter, and meets more flush with the bar ends. Rather than a sheer edge where the bar end meets the grip.

put the grips onto the bar and bung it into the oven until the whole things become visco-elastic to a high degree and yank on it like you yank your foreskin and hopefully that'll shrink it? Just a suggestion but i'm sure the grips will have it in them to do that? What compound did you get?

Foreskin yanking stretches it I believe. Mr. Green

You've been talking about longer clip ons for a while. What diameter are your forks?

Or do the clips ons bolt on to the bracket which is around the leg, e.g can you just clamp in a longer bit of bar?
