Will sportbike grips fit the handlebars of the Rattler? Nothing relevant came up when I searched for "grips". Thanks.

best thing to do is get the diameter of the bars on your rattler, which i don't know off the top of my head, and see what out there matches it.

something i have been thinking of are bmx grips the bars are the same size and should fit easy enought plus they are relatively cheap and alot of variety. check this site out.

the handle bars on your rat are the same as motocross or bmx bikes 7/8in they will work just fine you can also swap your bars for a higher rise or basically whatever you need its not the easiest thing to do

Would bmx grips work? Doesn't the twist throttle require one a tad larger? Also, I haven't seen any motocross or bmx grips that are ready for bar ends.

Not sure on the size for the twist grip but i do know that most BMX grips come with open ends specifically for inserting bar ends, but if they are not open on the end they usually have a grove that is molded in and is made to be cut there. im thinking about these.
