Author Message   Marko138 Posted on Tuesday, September 30, 2008 - 10:32 am:        To the guys using the traction grips...are any of you running bar end mirrors? I installed the grips yesterday and the throttle side is giving me problems. When I put the mirror in all the way the throttle sticks. When I pull it out enough to let the throttle move freely the mirror doesn't have enough of it's post in the clip-on to tighten down. Is there an extention made for the mirrors or what are you guys doing? Thanks.   Squash Posted on Tuesday, September 30, 2008 - 10:51 am:        get a longer bolt and put a nut between the 2 black half pieces.   Timo31 Posted on Tuesday, September 30, 2008 - 11:57 am:        I have the ebay bar ends and traction grip. I have not had any issues.   Marko138 Posted on Tuesday, September 30, 2008 - 12:47 pm:        Thanks, I'm gonna try a longer bolt.   Reepicheep Posted on Tuesday, September 30, 2008 - 01:14 pm:        Chop off more of the end, so that the thing sticking out the furthest is the throttle collar (or at least the rigid throttle collar and traction grip are flush). Works fine with the 3rd eye mirrors on my 9sx, and worked fine with the napoleans on my old M2.   Froglosopher Posted on Tuesday, September 30, 2008 - 05:46 pm:        I also have traction grips and ebay bar-end mirrors. My throttle sticks just a little bit but only for a few seconds then slowly goes back, but it doesn't really bother me, sorta like a cruise control for a few seconds so I can shake out my hand.   Toona Posted on Tuesday, September 30, 2008 - 11:48 pm:        I just shaved the end of the grip off with a strait razor blade. You really can't read the white script on the end of the grip with the mirror in place anyway.   Buellblastrider Posted on Wednesday, October 01, 2008 - 12:27 am:        traction grips CRG bar ends and adapter on mine   Pkforbes87 Posted on Wednesday, October 01, 2008 - 09:23 am:        Traction grips + third eye + razor blade. I wish I had left more of the grip in place, to allow a temporary "throttle lock"
