I'm no longer an MX guy but feel quite confident I can make these work on all my off-road bikes including the 1290. Order placed! Thanks Emig and RMATV!
Sick. I'm getting these. I race enduros/hare scrambles so I'm definitely gonna have to get rid of the end cap. I've done it with other grips using a hole saw the exact same size of inner diameter of the grip.
Contrary to what's said in the video, the ends knock-out really cleanly for full wrap guards. The remaining plastic outside of the aluminum has a nice taper to it like it was manufactured for this purpose. The aluminum end caps also must be scored or something similar. Much cleaner than the old style, which didn't always knock-out cleanly, and the rubber would sometimes separate a little.
I bought my bike with these installed by the previous owner. That end cap came out rather easy.... what I didnt know at the time was the right grip being the throttle tube... I purchased a G2 dirt tamer throttle and now I am kinda stuck. Buy another set just to use the clutch side on the throttle, or change grips all together..... kinda torn because if I go with another set of these and ever need to replace them, I won't buy 2 more sets to make 1... wish they sold 2 clamp style together!!!
Just installed a set and the throttle seems to plunge into the housing about an 1/8” as if there is space in there. Is this normal or what did I do wrong because old grips didn’t to it ? It is the right cam installed throttle moves freely
I’m dumb I’m hitting the track this weekend and the only store that has my cam in stock is on the other side of the state 3 hours away…. I just cut my old grips off 🥲
The end caps dont remove for us off road HS racers with full wrap hand guards? Kind of a step back IMO. Was about to purchase some. Good for the track guy only group I suppose. Thanks for making sure to point that flaw out.
Jason Padgett Thanks for leaving a comment Jason. But having a plastic end cap w a metal end cap is not a “flaw”, this grip is designed w a mx/sx racer in mind. 99.9% of racers would not run full wrap hand guards. The end cap design is actually more durable than before. If you like the grip design, and you want to run full wrap hand guards, simply take Dremel and cut the end cap off. It should leave you with a clean cut w no end cap. If you decide to try it, make a video and send it to me, I would love to see how it comes out. 👍🏼
Jeff Emig what is the best method to knock out the end cap on the original version? I just bought my first set of ODI lock on’s but I run full wrap handguards. Wanted to get the down low b4 starting the install. Thanks you Legend !!
@@jamesbramblett3346 on the original, you can just score them with a blade and knock them out. I just installed the original myself and also use full wrap for hare scramble races. The end caps on the original are plastic.
Hello, I had the Odi Half Waffle Lock-On and the outer diameter was too small for me, you know if these Emig pro v2 have a larger diameter and how much it corresponds? Many thanks!
Do they make these for us Sport Quad riders. I would like to see product reviews that apply to Quads be address in your videos. You make great videos and are very informative. Great stuff keep it up. Thanks
If you want to use ATV specific clamp-on grips if you have a thumb throttle. You can check out all of our ATV grips with a few clamp-on options here: www.rockymountainatvmc.com/parts/atv-grips
I know the other ODI grips would not fit on the clutch side of Pro Taper bars, which is why I don't run them. I'm curious if this issue was addressed with these grips.
They fit, just like the regular odi lock on grips you need to sand down the knurled surface on the clutch side a little bit to get the grip to slide on. Works perfect.
@@myboostedtsi Yeah, I figured as much. I just would rather not have to do that to my brand new bars. Just a little too much effort for what's supposed to be a quick install.
You would want ATV lock on grips. Stand up skis have a thumb throttle, right? ATV grips are the same 7/8" diameter on the left and right side. The motorcycle lock ons are a larger diameter on the throttle side due to the throttle
We've had customers do it but the ends aren't meant to be knocked out like on the older V2 Emig's so I would maybe stick with those if you plan on taking the ends off.

you'll have to let us know how it works out for you. Thank you for your business!-Chase
ooohhh Hell Yes.. as soon as my other v2 lock ons wear out. This is my first purchase this summer from Rocky Mountain. Awesome. :)

I had the V1's and they are the best grips period.
Was interested untill you said they made the diameter smaller, really like Scott grips for having big hands
Can’t wait to try these out!

How do you take the cam off the grip say if you need to change from cam B to Cam D

Would these fit on a 2020 Honda crf250f ?

The diameter of those two grips is very close.

Thomas, ODI does make a lock on grip for quads but not the Emig Pro.
does these fit on a yamaha wr 125x
Can I put these on my Yamaha warrior 350?
Unfortunately, these are designed to be used on motorcycles with twist throttles.
@@rmatvmc oh thanks for the heads up. By the way can I use the pro taper clamp grips instead?

@@rmatvmc thank you! I’ll be sure to!
Just purchased these right now lol
emig or rogue? for mountain riding
I would choose the Emig grip every time. - Chase

Mine did. Just had to use some sand paper to the the lil bumps that help the nornal grip stick better

@@myboostedtsi Yeah, I figured as much. I just would rather not have to do that to my brand new bars. Just a little too much effort for what's supposed to be a quick install.
Literally takes 30 seconds extra with some sand paper
@@z400forlife It's literally fine because I ended up buying different grips.
challenge accepted, end caps will be removed!
Haha let us know how it goes!
I suppose its nothing a Wilwaukee sawsall can't handle!
kyle peterson Send me a video of what you do! 👍🏼
Can you use these with hand guards?
Yes, the aluminum grip ends can be cut off to accommodate wrap around handguards.
Can I drill it out to put hand guards
Yes, we've had customers cut off the ends to use with wrap around hand guards.
Do they automatically fit 1/8 bars
All 1 1/8 bars taper to a 7/8 so, yes.
@@rmatvmc is there a way to have a crank made from scratch since there not available to buy new ?
Can I use it on a stand up ski. Kawa 750sx?
You would want ATV lock on grips. Stand up skis have a thumb throttle, right? ATV grips are the same 7/8" diameter on the left and right side. The motorcycle lock ons are a larger diameter on the throttle side due to the throttle
@@rmatvmc Not sure if thumb throttle is correct but they are on the handle, more like index finger throttle.

Is it easy to cut the ends off?
We've had customers do it but the ends aren't meant to be knocked out like on the older V2 Emig's so I would maybe stick with those if you plan on taking the ends off.
@@rmatvmc ok thx, but is it possible to?
Yes, it is possible to cut the ends off. It'll just be a bit tougher than regular grips.
@@rmatvmc ok thx u
