Hi All,

Very mature lady rider with a 57 plate 650a Classic Dragstar and thinking of a few modifications starting with the handlebar grips. I have no idea what size I need but have found some here:

Being a complete novice who so far has done nothing other than attach the Optimate and put in petrol (get the rest done at my dealer's)I would like to know if I need 1" or 7/8ths" diameter grips and how easy it is. I know, I know - I will learn as time goes on!!!

If this is not too difficult I may try the pipe drilling and some brake pedal replacements next!! Man, am I brave :o

Thanks in advance
