Default Longer hand grips

Hi Guys,

Looking for some longer hand grips that are compataible with a Break a way cruise control. The AVONs have a have a 5" model but it is concaved near the switch housing and I am not sure if they will work.

Any suggestions ?

All most all of the after market grip type cruise controls use adjustable "set screws" to keep it's position on the grip because they are made to fit several models. It's just a matter of getting longer screws at the hardware store if there's a fitting issue.
You might have to use your imagination to come up with some kind of rubber or "bushing" to make it look good where it mounts against the grip.
Those things do take up space but you get used to it.
