My memory of lever tips is not the thick, molded, slip on version but instead more of a thin coating, like it was dipped. The very tips even had a slight buildup, as if a drip was about to form.

I keep thinking I may try black Plasti Dip like [url=http://www.plastidip.com/home_solutions/Plasti_Dip]THIS.

Sorry DG, but your memory is foggy lol. These are the SAME PART NUMBER as early CB 550/750 rlets. When I ordered my 2013 CB 1100 in November 2012, I ordered the rlets at the same time off a 74 CB 550. Those are the ones we are using, they are OEM Honda...original replacement parts..

Could tell the passenger was eyeballing me but at this point I don't look over. Car in front and I are approaching a red light. Car stops, but the truck has a clear lane and stops beside me. After placing my feet down, I look over and see the window coming down.... Here it comes.
Passenger "What year is that?"
Me"2013"
Passenger to driver "I told you that was one of those new ones! I told you! That's one of those new ones!"
Passenger - turning to me with a silly grin on his face rustling in his seat- "Thats a nice bike man."
Me "Thank you"
Look forward to see a green light and the car in front already thru the intersection. Take off a bit quick, a little higher revs, just so they can hear the exhaust.
I just smile I really do love this motorcycle
