Strange story about Oury grips...

I put a set on my 74 Husky 125, which was just stored in a machine shed. It kept bikes from weathering, but wasn't sealed enough to keep birds out. For whatever reason, those grips attracted a flock of sparrows, and they ATE the grips off the bars. Totally ruined them in one evening.

everyone has their favorites but i hate oury grips. that style gives me blisters on my palms when riding aggressive. i only use renthal soft or medium full diamond grips. they are small diameter and have perfect grip on your hands.

       Awesome pegs and at that price a great deal I think you will love the pegs.

Just an old guy that enjoys going fast, I was in the army for 6 years and bought my first K5 when I returned from basic training. I raced a yz60 from age 6 to 8  a kx80 from 8 to 12  a kx125 from 12-17 intermediate class on k5 which I've owned 3.

How did the foot pegs work?  Does anyone know if they will fit a 95 k5?
