1986 Honda CB700SC · Handlebar Grip Selection Buying guide

Choose grip ends after checking the control space

The two grip choices share their stated length and bar application. Their end treatment differs, so compare the existing bar ends and accessories before choosing the finish for the fitted controls.

Choose the end treatment deliberately

The closed-end version provides a closed rubber finish, while the open-end grips include plugs. Compare the existing bar-end fittings before buying. An open grip does not itself identify the hardware or clearance needed by every aftermarket weight or bar-end accessory.

Check the operating control underneath

The 130 mm grips must fit the throttle sleeve and clear the existing bar ends. After any control or handlebar changes, Honda requires the wires, hoses and cables to remain free through all steering positions. Check that the new grip and end arrangement does not obstruct throttle return.

Buying questions

Does 7/8-inch bar fit mean the right grip goes directly on bare metal?

No. The right-hand grip fits over the throttle sleeve. Check that sleeve’s condition and the available 130 mm grip space, as well as the clearance at the outer end, before choosing either end style.

Are these genuine Honda-manufactured grips?

They are described as OEM-type replicas. The references identify the intended style and application, while that manufacture distinction should remain clear when choosing them for the restoration.

Can a bar-end accessory be accepted just because the grip is open-ended?

No. Its mounting system and clearance must be checked independently. The grip opening does not verify the accessory attachment, and the finished arrangement must leave the throttle free to return throughout the steering range.
