Title: Get a Grip!
Post by: Mikku on April 14, 2016, 01:26 PM: A quick question about the classic Tange/Kuwahara/Hutch grips:- can anyone tell me which way round they're supposed to be fitted, by which I mean, does the rectangular Tange/Kuwahara/Hutch name plate face forwards, away from the rider or backwards, towards the rider? The opposite side has the raised line of holes running along the length of the grip from the grip end to the flange. It's not a very good pic, but hopefully you can see what I mean from this:-

Thanks Radsters! :daumenhoch:

Post by: Mikku on April 14, 2016, 02:29 PM: Yes, those are them!! So you're running them with the name plate facing backwards, and the holes forward, which is how I've got mine set up on my Laserlite. Thanks for posting those pics Ant! :daumenhoch:
