Hi Ray,
I like these grips.

http://avongrips.com/shop/products/M...ed-Grips.html#

Was wondering if you can do your install on these grips for my brand new 2015 vaquero?
Do you purchase the grips, then mod and then send to me ready to go? Or do you just send to me, your mod and then I put all together?
If you do, what is my full cost?
Right now the Canadian dollar is taking a sh#t canning so I doubt I will be doing this soon. But when the snow clears and I finally ride for the first time, I might just bite the bullet and do this. I am coming off an FZ1 and am used to quick throttle response and if I find the drag bothersome, I will be asking for it.
Thanks Ray

Dave which avon grips fit your mod. having a lil bit of a hard time,
does'nt look like I can modify what I have (performance mach. grips called contour) your mod fits a grip with the throttle sleeve already milled in the grip
or one that you use your factory throttle sleeve

I really do hate the look of a kuryAikyn grip and some avons duplicate that.

These are the ones I have. You just glue on the throttle cam for kawasaki and my mod attaches to that.
