I went with the Exile internal throttle and their knurled grips. Gotta watch the internal diameter, some are 1", and some are 1.125". If its 1", you should be able to use any left side set screw type grip. If it's 1.125", you can use Exile, or any aftermarket HD grip (you'll just have to cut the throttle cable holder off the end and drill for a couple set screws). It's all a pain in the ***, but that's the price you pay for havin a cool setup!

I have the HD non stock that I did cut the cable holders off.. The problem is most have plastic inner sleeves and when you use a set screw it will stay in place until your 60 miles from home.. And twistin the bare internal throttle was not fun : )

Did you ask for two lefts or purchased two sets?

Sorry Joe.........brain lock on the word "internal" makes a big difference.

I got them from the shop that did my bars but, I requested these specifically so I believe that he just called Joker up and ordered 2 lefts. I've dealt with Joker myself and their customer service is second to none.
