ken5124 Posted April 28, 2020 Share #1 Posted April 28, 2020 Looking for some help.. Kuryaken said their Universal Thresher Grips would work on my 1986 Venture Royale, 7/8 inch size.. Part Number 5950. I got them today but they seem to be almost 1 inch too short at 5 inches in length.. My throttle sleeve on the bike appears to be just about 6 inches. Anyone encountered the same or have a solution or alternative>? Thanks ken Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Patch Posted April 28, 2020 Share #2 Posted April 28, 2020 My experience is its always a somethin and I just adjust accordingly by moving things. I always use the largest grips possible on my touring toys so I accept that I will need to mod up a bit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Prairiehammer Posted May 1, 2020 Share #4 Posted May 1, 2020 but how long is a normal grip for this bike.. ? I have read that goldwing grips are the right ones as well.. Anyone else ?? Ken The First Generation grip is indeed longer than most at about 6¾". And yes, grips marketed for the Honda GL1500 and GL1800 are a perfect fit for the Venture.
