I just got a 06 Vector GT this year and after 500 miles I've really been noticing the bumps on the ends of grips bothering me. I've searched for a kit to change the grips but it doesn't seem to be made by Yamaha anymore. Any ideas on how to change out the handlebars or put new curved grips on this thing?

You could always put on a used set of hooked apex bars. Everything should just plug in and bolt right up.
Btw, could you add your location as per site rules. Thank you.

Thanks, I'll look for those. Any specific years I should look for or basically anything from 05 will work?
I'll update my location too, sorry.

Pretty much anything 06 up should work. You could try laneo or hibsman on the site as they scrap sleds. There are a few others as well but all usually have some listed up here.
