Which isogrips for RIIIR? 6236 or 6240?

[Robm422]

I just ordered the 6236, but now i'm wondering if i made a mistake.
On amazon it says the model to get for triumph is 6236. But then i read somewhere that the 6240 is a lot easier to install, because it uses the stock throttle sleeve. Anybody have experience installing either?

yikes...it's been so long ago that I can't remember. I seem to recall that I used the 6240 but someone else needs to confirm.

The model that uses the stock throttle sleeve is not going to fit right, I believe. Do some searches here, the search function works well, but as I recall someone bought the black one that goes over the sleeve and it is so tight the sleeve deformed causing the throttle to bind.

http://www.kuryakyn.com/products/3798/iso-grips recommends the 6236 for the R3's.

I haven't actually installed one, but with a built-in sleeve it should be a matter of opening up literally two bolts, disconnecting the stock grip, putting the Iso-grip in there, hooking up the cables and tightening the bolts.

Of course, you may have to peel the bear claw and assorted other bits and bobs off the side of the bike and loosen the throttle cables to do that... not hard, just takes a little time and it's a bit cramped to get in there.

But since the one that reuses the stock sleeve is probably too tight, your choices aren't many.

Ok, i'll stick with the 6236's then, they have their own throttle sleeve.

I just had a look at my receipt. I'm running 6235.

Unless you enjoy doing things the hard way, get the grips that come with the throttle sleeve.

My avons didn't have a throttle sleeve, my stock grips didn't have a throttle sleeve, am I missing something with the iso's?

Mine came with their own sleeve and work lovely

Grips (Iso-grips or others) can be had both for retrofitting to a stock throttle sleeve or with an integrated new throttle sleeve. The models with a sleeve already on there should be easier to install, in my opinion.

KY-6236. Installed mine recently, dead easy. Contoured Throttle Boss (KY-6299) is a great addition also.
