I have never really been a fan of my current grips which are the ProGrip 699. They are comfy enough and have no gripes with how they feel under hand but they are shorter then the stock ones and the gap between the end of the grip and bar end weights always bugged me. I did some looking around and did not find much in the way of longer grips until I came across the ProGrip 698. These grips have a listed length of 135mm vs the 699 at 125mm. I measured the old grips and the gap and figured they would be just about the right length so I ordered a set from amazon for about $10. They arrived the other day and while I haven't yet had the chance to install them on the bike I took some comparison photos to share on the forum. They seem to be the exact same length and look they will work nicely.
