Why Long Rides Hurt Your Hands

Road vibration transfers through handlebars. Long rides cause numbness and fatigue. Stock grip diameter doesn't fit every hand. Thin grips make it worse.

Replacing grips means glue and mess. Most grip options are permanent. You want to experiment with diameter and damping without commitment.

Riders need customization that's clean, adjustable, and doesn't require permanent modification.

How Guard-Tex Improves Motorcycle Grip

Vibration Damping

Multiple layers absorb road buzz before it reaches your hands. More layers equals more damping. Find your comfort level.

Custom Diameter

Build up thin grips to reduce squeeze fatigue. Create your ideal grip size for long-haul comfort.

Clean Installation

Use under grips or over them. Zero adhesive means no mess when you change or adjust.

Guard-Tex vs. Gel Grips and Bar Weights

Gel grips are permanent and expensive. Bar weights add mass without addressing grip size. Guard-Tex is adjustable, affordable, and addresses both vibration and diameter.

How to Customize Your Handlebars

1

Build Under Grips

Wrap Guard-Tex on bars before installing grips. Adds diameter and damping under your existing setup.

2

Or Build Over Grips

Wrap over existing grips for quick vibration damping without removing them. Good for testing.

3

Adjust for Comfort

Add or remove layers based on ride feel. Find your ideal setup through experimentation.

Pro Tips From Riders

  • Build the clutch side thicker than throttle side if you prefer different grip diameters.
  • Wrap throttle side carefully to maintain full rotation.
  • More layers on highway bikes, less on sport bikes where feel matters more.

Motorcycle Grip Tape FAQ

Does it affect throttle response?

Not if wrapped properly. Keep the throttle side snug but not tight. Ensure full rotation remains smooth.

Will it survive weather?

Yes. Guard-Tex handles wet conditions. Under grips, it's fully protected from elements.

Can I use it on heated grips?

Yes, but check that wrap thickness doesn't over-insulate from the heating element.
