Ok then inmates, I need some help with a part ID, so lets see what you got.

Here is a NOS Gen-U-Wine Z1 grip, now you will notice how the individual grippy bits are domed (have a radius) ....

As you can see the little grippy bits are flat, so what bike was this made for? it is not the same as the part that was advertised by the seller, as their ebay picture had the domed grip?

If it doesn't have japan embossed on the end then its a pattern part.
Sadly genuine grips have recently become nla from kawasaki.
