I know its a mundane question but looking to update my grips. I measure the outside diameter of my stock bars and it says 1" , When I go to a site like JP Cycles it keeps calling for 7/8 for my 2013 roadster. Does the bars taper down to something else or do they have it wrong? Don't want to take mine off until I have something else to put back on.
 
Your bars are 1 inch in diameter.
Take a look at the Biltwell grips on Amazon. Only 18 bucks and they work super!
 
i had a look too...shows 1 inch until you click on it then it changes to 7/8....i have bought stuff from them and the service is faultless...no complaints ...
 
Avon (made in Texas) Very comfortable and look great. Order straight from Avon. No glue required. (1 inch) metric is how they are listed.
 
Straight and skinny grips not for me, Sonny.

+1 on the Avons for comfort. Just a shame they don't do the BOSS PERFORMANCE for metric - and a PITA that they do not make an open end - I took a hacksaw to mine as suggested by Avon!.
