Hello everyone. I had my grab handles powder coated black to blend in with the black side covers. It only cost $20, compared to $180 to order a black set from the 2014 model from Honda. I was hoping they would be a little less shiny, but they will do. Has anyone else changed their handles to a different color? If so, did you paint or powder coat them? Any pictures to share? Thanks.

They look great. After seeing your pictures I would like to do them and the rear foot peg brackets.
Ride safe my friend

Randy..looks great...if you did the rear footpegs too they would just disappear. I did that on my Gen 1 FZ-1.

I think if I did the grab rails it would be too much. I think I have a really good balance with the silver and black that I have on the bike now.

Rear footpegs blacked out

The black seat rails look nice with the black side covers fredkb. I like it.

Looks great - nice match.
I can't help but wonder what one of Mr. T's black or red rear fenders would look like on there now! Cool

Randy that looks great. Did you paint them or have them powder coated?

Randy B · 10-11-2014, 04:28 PM

I bought them from another member that got them from Japan. They are standard on the blacked out bikes.
