I sold my 91 1300 VR last summer. I was going through my garage and found that I still have 4 brand new pads. My membership expires in 2 days and I am not going to renew this time. I don't have time to place an ad, and if it is ok to post them here I will take $25 and I will pay the shipping. Can use paypal or will take a check. When it clears I will ship. I am in West KY. If you want to see pics, I can text them to you or email them. my number is 270.804.0608. (text please) Thank you. Admin, if this is not OK please delete. Thanks.

02, high miles, but completely rebuilt by a local HD dealership. 7 grand in the motor. Big Cams, performance chip. Will smoke a tire in 5th. I bought it off the first and only owner. He put a lot in it and everything was done by a local dealer. Has health issues and can't ride anymore. Powder coated the wheels and forks. The speakers at about 1/4th volume will blast you off the bike. He took care of this jewel.

Thanks!

I usually keep a bike about 5 years. Think I have had the VR about 7. Really a nice bike. My dad always had Electra Glides. When I was in diapers he put me in front and off we would go. I have had harleys, but not a electra glide. From the time I was little I wanted a electra glide. This is my first. I was tinkering with it yesterday, but instead of using my tools. I broke out my dads old tools about my age. Stood there and got a good laugh. I just imagined him wrenching on his 60 models.

Well; I did it. went back to HD. Just bought a Electra Glide. Put the VR up for sale. This is my new ride. http://i34.photobucket.com/albums/d101/TJ41/th_KIMG2013_zpsfthcdgcg.jpg

No. The day I can't ride I am done. I am 54. Started riding when I was 8.

I finally got it off. The left is 1 in the right is a inch and a quarter. The sleeve on the right the od on the bar is 1.25. The id on the grip is the same. 1 in on the left.

I finally got it off. The left is 1 in the right is a inch and a quarter.

Are you sure 7/8ths? I measured the right and its 1 inch. When I put my info in the search it came up 1 Inch left 1.25 in right. Right appears to be 1 in also. It showed the vr's as both.

Yeah it's the throttle side that I am having problems with. I have moved it a 1\4 inch. The right side appears to be 1 in. If that is the case I have more grips to choose from.

I got the left off. Still working on the right. From what I been reading the left is 1 in. The right is 1.25 in. On ebay a bunch said they would fit. After clicking on it they were all 1 in except for 3. Slim pickings.

Yep, they were glued.

I have 91 VR. I am wanting to replace my foam type grips. The times I have swapped them on other bikes there was a screw or set screw. Are these glued by chance and what is the best way to get them off? Thanks!

What I did was I just stuck the axle through it until I put the wheel back on. I had the washer on the end and not between the swing arm and bracket. When I put it together is when I looked at the Yamaha manual. The washer is what keeps it in place. Sorry for the confusion. I thought the shoulder should not go through the swing arm and bracket. When I seen it did that is when I was thinking about putting a clevis in the 2 holes.
