All of the 1 1/8" bars I've seen (including mine) taper down to 7/8" at the ends, so they should fit.
Yes! These are standard grips that will fit a handlebar with a diameter of 7/8". At the end (where the grips go), all handlebars are 7/8" wide. Some handlebars are thicker in the middle (where the clamps are), but taper out to 7/8".
They do fit 7/8 and perform admirably.
You'll need to get the thumb throttle ones.

You look and feel fantastic. I also made mirrors by cutting out the ends! Don't be afraid to take a chance; you won't regret it!.
It worked great on my old pit bike, and it has a ridiculous amount of grip even when wearing gloves. They are, however, pleasant to be around. If your dirt bike, pit bike, or four wheeler has thicker bars, it can be a bit of a challenge to install. But using an air compressor, as I did, or soapy water if you don't have one, makes it much easier. Before riding, allow the water to evaporate. 5 ⭐️.
Grips are adequate. They aren't as sticky and tacky as I had anticipated. It's also worth noting that the round donut portion of the grip is gray rather than black. I'm not sure why ProTaper insists on painting all of their grips gray. Because I have small hands, the lite grip appears to make it easier for me to reach the levers. Let's see how long they last--my stock Renthal grips lasted two years and could have easily lasted another six months. I'm guessing the last six months have been a whirlwind of activity.
As a result, I don't have anything with which to compare. With the exception of the factory settings, One of the grips had been ripped in half by me. It was my first time installing them, so it was a bit of a learning experience. I was watching a YouTube video. That was fantastic. br>However, I did not fare well. As a result, I placed a second order. br>At the moment, I'm riding a Honda CRF 250L. br>I'm riding with the new throttle side grip. br>It's very comfortable and secure. I'm a rider who prefers a firm grip. As a result, I made these out of safety wire. That's fantastic. You won't notice the wire because it will sink into the pillow top. br>Wonderful item!!.
Overall, I don't think I have a bad grip. However, at first, I had some issues with them. The first set I received had a small separation between the firmer end piece and the softer middle section, so I had to order a second set. I was unable to use my throttle due to excessive tearing. But I put on the new set, and they're fantastic on the track. The smaller diameter is pleasant to the touch, and they do help to absorb some shock and vibration.
You'll have a hard time putting them on if you don't do so. They don't move on my bars and didn't require any glue. When compared to my factory grips, there is a noticeable difference in vibration.
The color I received was not the same as the one shown. It depicts a black grip, but the ones I received are gray. I didn't feel strongly enough about them to return them, so I'll have to wait for the correct ones to arrive. They're still nice grips, and they're simple to install. The pro taper grip glue should be avoided. It's literally super glue, and you'll have to cut the grips off if you don't get them where you want them in about 3 seconds after applying the glue. Look for grip glue that is made of rubber cement. You'll have more time to tweak things.
My crf125fb was able to use them. Putting them on was a little difficult; the throttle grip should have had a larger hole, but I managed to get it on by stretching it and applying lube. The grips, on the other hand, are fantastic!.
