Did those grips replace the throttle tube or go on top of the throttle tube?

It comes with a throttle tube to replace the stock one.. if that's what you mean...

So you attach a cable to the new grip? Just want to confirm.

The tube is separate from the grips... so once u take the stock one off.. u slide that one on, attach your cables... then you slide the grip on and attach it with some allen head screws that are pre-installed into the grips, comes with some loctite for the screws too... wouldn't want those bad boys coming off at high speeds cause a screw loosened

I have the XOPRODOX shooter spike grips. In fact, posted the thread about them long ago when I found them browsing the internet. Great product! The grips are 100% billet and made in USA. The new "throttle tube" is also billet and much better quality than the original.

Installation as very simple, and IMO, the billet grips really change the character of the front end. Makes it look more like a custom/high end bike instead of a production bike with those cheesy rubber grips.

HIGHLY RECOMMEND THEM!!!!

Lol, think we compared notes before... .... only thing I don't like is the squeak you get if you hard throttle... metal on metal... plan on taking my throttle off tho to add some anti-seize on the metal, to see if that will help with the squeaking...

Thats what I'm thinking. I Got the bike running again with the broken with the stock throttle tube, but its always in the back of mind about breaking again.
