I need to order grip puppies or covers today and I'm not near the bike. Anyone know the diameter of our grips?

Thank you.

1.25 is what you want I think. This is what I have used. The clutch side ripped after 5k miles so I just ordered a new set. the 4.25 length seems right but I ordered the 5" length this time to see how it fits. The shorter one is stretched a tad to cover the whole grip and I suspect the 4 " will be a little long but I can trim it. The 4.25 works perfectly fine though.

Thanks. Maybe it's the relentless Florida sun but my grips are worn, sticky and nasty. I just got home and i got 1.5" at the thickest. Makes sense since it's a 1" handlebar. I'll update when they arrive.

I rode to a gold wing store found the right size and cut off the extra length
