I got some Ralley Grips gel grips intending to put them on my '04... but NO! It appears the stock heated grip is propritary to BMW and there is a ridge at the outboard end that would prevent another grip from being installed..plus, the inboard end is moulded to the housing that captures the throttle wires.
Am I missing something? Anybody else installed another grip?
It appears, at a minimum, $100 per side to install BMW parts!

I put on foam grips a couple years ago, they cover the stock grips so it was a matter of slipping them over the originals. They increase the diameter of the grip, which doesn't bother me at all, they let much less vibration through, which was my goal. I don't remember the name of the company who made them, I did find them at the BMW dealer.

I have used the foam grips too, but they are really fat. According to the buyer feedback for the grip that I am trying to use everybody who used the gel grips really liked the vibration reduction.
