The ‘Thresher Collection’ –
“Comfort and Control”
Pioneers in isolation mounting “back in the day” with
ISO pegs, Kuryakyn is introducing a new line of grips
and pegs that are said to offer “the ideal combination
of comfort and control.“
Featuring EPDM (ethylene propylene diene
monomer) M-class synthetic rubber Thresher grips are
“designed with an ergonomic profile that’s formed to
the shape of the hands for a comfortable contoured
and commanding feel. Both the grips and matching
Thresher pegs feature premium EPDM rubber
surfaces with detailed shark tooth-inspired knurling
for confident traction and vibration dampening. The
durable EPDM rubber compound offers secure grip
and will not harden, crack or wear over time.”
The universal grips for most 7/8” and 1” handlebar
applications have a comfortable spindle-shaped
design with tapered ends and an expanded palm
area. The contoured grip bodies are constructed
completely from EPDM rubber rated in the 50-60-
durometer range for an ultra-soft cushioned base that
dampens vibration and eliminates hand fatigue.
Aluminum collars and end caps “with subdued styling
provide a clean look on virtually any type of
motorcycle”, and the included bar-mounted end caps
can be swapped out for bar-end mirrors or weights.
Available chrome or satin black, additional OEM-
specific fitments are in development for
Harley-Davidson, Indian, Victory and a wide range of
metric cruisers.
The matching footpegs and shift pegs feature sleek
and streamlined aluminum castings wrapped in
EPDM rubber, “with steel adapters that offer sturdy
and secure foot placement. The detailed ‘shark tooth’
knurling is more pronounced on the pegs to ensure a
greater amount of traction and vibration dampening
for riders. Splined adapters allow precise footpeg
positioning to let riders dial in their preferred
placement.”
Available with male-mount adapters for most H-D
models, and without adapters for a variety of OEM
fitment via model-specific splined adapters (sold
separately).
Thresher shift pegs are available in chrome or black
in two applications - as a direct replacement for all
H-D shift levers, as well as the shift peg on Indian big
twins or shift and brake peg locations on Indian
Scouts and select Victory models.
