Tried to look it up in the parts phish, but it is not listed.
Anyone know what grips Bimota used on the SB8R?

Unless there are any makers marks on the originals then theres probably no way of telling.
Personally I wouldnt get to hung up over it if you want to change them. I use Renthal road race dual compound they take some of the vibes out of the bars and still give more feel than most.
I used carb or brake cleaner to put them on. Clean the bar / throttle tube spray the cleaner on the bar and inside the grips and you'll probably get them 3/4 of the way. Use a long allen key worked between the bar and grip then spray a bit more cleaner to get the grip home _________________ Don't read everything you believe |

Im not necessarily looking for 100% factory correct.
Bike has these tacky aftermarket grips, just want something more fitting or period.
Was hoping someone knew that a 1998 CBR/GSXR/YZFZ was the same. _________________ Bimota (Tesi 1D 904SR, DB2, DB4, SB6,SB6R, SB8R, SB8K Santa Monica) Ducati (1000SS, Monster S4, 999R) Aprilia (RSV Mille R Haga) Honda (CL125s and 70s Chopper) |

Yes, unfortunately you need to upload your photos to a photo hosting site like imgur or Flickr. These 2 are still free to do so _________________ '99 DB4 #104, '96 SB6 #1165, '94 DB2 J #652, '99 DB4 #088, '08 VTX1800, '93 ZXR750R M1, '95 ZXR750, '95 ZXR750 Race Bike, '94 CBR400rr NC29 Race Bike, '94 CB250, '49 BSA C10 250, '61 BSA A10 650, '89 ZXR750, '91 Ducati 851 |

I found on the YB series, Bimota often use the original part numbers for imported parts (e.g. my Bike uses Ducati indicators and has Ducati part numbers). So try using the parts manual number.
Additionally, the host bike often provides many of the parts, you could look there.
