Does the dealer sell the tiny throttle ferrule?

The one which hooks the throttle cable to the grip. Mine fell down while changing handlebar and can not find it now!! Do they sell the whole cable set or I can buy that tiny thingy separately.

Rule #1 when changing grips or cables: Don't drop the brass ferrule !

The brass ferrule is HD part # 56508-76. I would be surprised if the dealer didn't have them.

Thanks a lot. Lesson learned! Not only the ferrule fell offalso broke the Kuryakyn grip plastic! I hate Kuryakyn grips. Now I have two sets with same thing broken on the throttle side grip. I wish they had warranty.
BTW are you an orthopedic surgeon?

My set of ISO grips fell apart as well. Have some Avons on there now.
And don't lose the ferrule. Little things roll everywhere!

Yes, they do. I drop mine changing grips as well, looked for it for about an hour, called the wife and she picked one up on her way home from work for me. Motorcycle gremlin must have eaten it.

Good luck.

If they don't have them, you can get them from J&P for like $1 each. I decided to replace all of mine with my new cables, so I bought 6 just in case. They are easy to install, but just as easy to lose

Im glad I painted my garage floor. I dropped mine a few times. paint made them easy to find. I hate Kuryakyn grips. My bike came with them. first long ride the throttle came loose from the tube. I threw the grip in the ditch and rode home on the throttle tube.
