Our local bike shop in the UK has them in stock so not just in the US.
Makes sense since Renthal isn’t even an American company.

Would have been better if they ran the retro graphics with a purple seat!

Whoever ran the graphics and design dept. at Kawi in the 90s deserves a bonus post dated cheque for their efforts

Funny how something as simple as seeing fresh purple Renthals (especially the Kawis for me) can make you genuinely feel happy haha. Gonna go to an Evo meeting this weekend now to keep the enthusiasm up.

I say yay on the purp and nay on the red pad and grips. Think it will pop better with gray or black grips and black numbers. Everyone’s taste is different though Smile sweet bike and new bars. I’m undecided if they will look good on my Yamaha. I’ll take a pick when they come in. 4 pairs to install lol god I’m a sucker for the 90s

Yeah I will for sure put gray or kevlar grips when I tear those one

I really liked those progrip, shame they don't seem to make them anymore, at least not in acceptable color!

I'm jealous of how good those bar look on kawi 😅

Mine showed up. Not exactly the right bar pad for my RC replica, but I don't care.

Damn. I’ve been spending $40 on any I’ve seen for sale recently. Even ordered one from France that is too damn small. Lol

Here it is. After my first son I haven't really touched it. Got to ride it once for the Day in the Dirt practice at Glen Helen two years ago. I told myself I would send the cylinder off for a 144 bore one of these days. It will probably just be a garage queen that I will hold on to. The oil looks a little milky too so I have to check the water pump seal. I've just been too damn busy.

Here’s my 21, still haven’t relocated the connectivity unit so I haven’t put the bar pad on yet.

 Very happy I was able to find a new set of Twinwall in my favourite bend, 999.

The purple goes great with hologram-based graphics 🙌🏼

Your wish has been answered.  Renthal is cranking out another run of purple bars.  Hitting distributors and dealers soon.
