RCB HG55 RUBBER HANDLE GRIP – UNIVERSAL

The RCB HG55 Rubber Handle Grip is one of the most popular “bang-for-your-buck” upgrades for any motorcycle. Designed as a universal fit, it prioritizes comfort and vibration dampening, making it a massive improvement over the hard, slippery plastic grips often found on stock bikes.

Here is why the HG55 is a staple in the riding community:

Dual-Texture “Diamond” Grip

The HG55 features a high-traction pattern often called a Diamond-Knurl surface.

• Superior Friction: This pattern ensures that even in heavy rain or with sweaty palms, your hands won’t slip off the bars.

• Open-Ended Design: It is an “Open-End” grip, meaning it is compatible with Bar-End Weights, mirrors, or handguards without needing to cut the rubber yourself.

• Softness: The rubber is soft enough to absorb the high-frequency vibrations from the engine, which helps reduce hand numbness during long rides.

Why Choose the HG66?

1. Anti-Fatigue: If you ride a single-cylinder bike (like R15 M or MT-15) that vibrates at high RPM, these grips act like a cushion for your palms.

2. Universal Fit: It fits almost any motorcycle with a standard 22mm (7/8″) handlebar.

3. Low Profile Style: It doesn’t look overly “flashy.” It provides a clean, sporty look that fits everything from a daily scooter to a dedicated track bike.

Pro Installation Tips

• The “Soap” Trick: Do not use oil or grease to slide them on! Use a tiny bit of soapy water or rubbing alcohol. The alcohol will lubricate the grip for installation and then evaporate, “locking” the grip in place.

• Throttle Side: Remember that the grip with the slightly larger hole is for the Right Side (Throttle) to accommodate the plastic throttle sleeve.

• Safety: If you are a performance rider, consider using Grip Wire to safety-tie the ends, ensuring they never rotate during aggressive riding.
