Link fixed. Tough to say. Seller calls them ATV grips and pit bike grips. So my guess would be that they will fit your left hand grip but you'll have a heck of a time getting that 7/8 gip over your trottle tube. ATV grips are made the same size to slip on the bars and use a thumb throttle. Scooter grips are made one side to fit the bar and one side larger to fit the throttle tube.

The add listing them as both is what confuses me. Some cheaper grips use a one size mentality so It is had to say. For sure, no but they can probably be made to work.

PU has good grips if you don't want OEM grips but I don't know what the color selection is.

" Fitment: ANY MOTORCYCLE WITH 7/8 LEFT GRIP AND 1 INCH RIGHT GRIP " That is what you want.
