The available handlebar choices for the 1981 CB900F Supersport focus on rubber grips. Decide whether the ends should be closed or open, then check the bar and throttle-side arrangement before choosing between the two factory-style replica options.
Keep your classic Honda looking factory-correct with these Honda OEM-Type Rubber Grips. Faithful replicas of the original grips fitted at the factory, in black...
Both choices are black rubber replicas, 130mm long and listed for 7/8-inch handlebars. Their main purchasing difference is the end style: the open-end option includes separate plugs, while the other has closed ends.
Both grip options are listed for the 1981–82 CB900F and for 7/8-inch handlebars, with a 130mm length. Compare the installed controls and throttle sleeve as well as bar diameter. A replacement handlebar or altered control layout should be checked on its own merits.
Choose the end treatment deliberately
An open end can accommodate an appropriate bar-end arrangement, but the accessory still needs compatible mounting and clearance. After fitting either grip, check that the throttle returns freely with the bars straight and turned both ways. Resolve contact with the switch housing or bar-end parts before riding.
Buying questions
How do I choose grips after changing the handlebars?
Compare the fitted bar diameter, throttle sleeve and usable length beside the controls with the listed 7/8-inch application and 130mm grip length. Check cable routing and bar-end hardware too; a stock-model listing does not verify a modified control layout.
Can a closed-end grip interfere with the throttle?
It can if the rubber or associated bar-end parts contact the rotating sleeve or its end. Fit the correct grip without compressing it against adjacent parts and check free throttle return through the steering range. Correct any binding before riding.
Does the open-end option guarantee that my mirrors or weights will fit?
No. Its included plugs finish the open grip, but a mirror or weight has its own attachment method. Check the bar bore, accessory fasteners and throttle-side clearance separately before deciding which end style suits the installation.
