DOMINO

Domino Grips and Throttles

Domino's catalog here is small and almost entirely about your hands: about 120 listings, roughly 105 of them grips and the rest throttle assemblies, replacement throttle tubes and a few accessories. Most sit in Handlebars, Grips & Controls, with 57 of the grips in Grips, Covers & Pads. Names carry the feel, and colors carry the rest, so the quick way in is to pick a line and then a color.

Domino's own company page says it was founded in 1951 in Cassago Brianza, Italy, as a maker of cable transmissions for clutches and brakes, and moved its production to Sirtori, near Lecco, in 1976.

Grips by line

XM2, MotoGP and A450. The three largest lines, about 13 listings each. The XM2 grips in black and gray and the XM2 in pink and white share a name with the MotoGP dual-compound grips in blue and white. The A450 name appears on road racing pairs such as the A450 in red and black and the A450 in anthracite and black.

Dirt and off-road. The Dually, Xtreme and Diamonte families run six to seven listings apiece, for example the Dually half waffle in black and green, the Xtreme in orange and blue and the Diamonte dual compound in black and gray. Victor is the waffle-pattern line, in full waffle, half waffle and no-waffle versions, and the Victor half waffle for ATV is marked for quads.

Street. The Turismo grips are labeled Street and come in about ten colorways, such as the Turismo in brown and black and the Turismo in silver and black. Retro styles include the Vintage Retro grips and the Vintage Cafe Racer grips.

Replica, Parco and Dakar. Plain black grips named for a bike or an end style: the Honda Replica, Yamaha Replica and Suzuki Replica grips, the Parco grips with closed ends and the Dakar grips with open ends.

Throttles and throttle parts

About 17 listings are throttle systems. The Trail Rapido, Torcere and KRK EVO for KTM and Husqvarna are sold without grips, while the Rally, Corsa, Lario and Formula are listed by name. For dirt bikes, the 2-stroke and 4-stroke throttle systems name the makes they cover, and there are replacement throttle tubes for 2-stroke and 4-stroke bikes. The Dual Pull throttle assembly sits with the UTV | ATV throttle controls, and the throttle conversion cable for KTM and Husqvarna is in the cables category.

Lock-ons and small parts

D-Lock and lock-on grips are the clamped styles: seven listings carry the D100 D-Lock name, such as the D100 in blue and the single-cable D100 in gray, and three are D200 lock-on grips. The Billet Grip Protectors and the Throttle Tamer for KTM, Husqvarna and Gas Gas round out the accessories.

Matching a Domino part

Grip titles give the length when it matters (120 mm, 128 mm, 11.5 or 12.5 cm) and whether the ends are open or closed, so measure the bar's free length and note whether your throttle is a cable type. Throttle systems and tubes name the makes and years they fit, and Domino lists 2-stroke and 4-stroke versions apart.

Domino questions

Are the grips sold as a pair? Many road racing titles say Pair; for the rest, check the listing before you order.

What is the difference between a Victor waffle and a no-waffle grip? The title names the pattern. Full waffle, half waffle and no-waffle versions are separate listings in the Victor line.

Do the throttles come with grips? Some say No Grips in the title, so those need grips of their own. Check each listing for what is included.
