Harley-Davidson Stitched Grips Chrome and leather have always been the hallmarks of the cruiser community, as well as warriors 2,000 years ago. Bronze weapons were once coated in chromium to preserve them, and they were still untarnished when found by archeologists. Leather has been worn by man since nudity went out of fashion.

To suggest that the application of these components is a modern recognition of their practical features is to diminish the men and women who put them to use long before the combustion engine was a dream. The chrome on your bike evokes in you the same kind of appreciation felt by the man in leather armor who polished his sword before the glow of his fire in A.D. 9.

Harley-Davidson embraces these elements in their chrome stitched grips. Admittedly, the beautiful strapping on these grips is not leather. To give the rider a more secure hold in all conditions, Harley fashioned their rubber grip to have the appearance of traditional, hand-tied leather. The homage is there, so they get points for effort. The base and cap, however, are all chrome.

The history of the motorcycle has redefined the use of chrome and leather for the modern era in a way that closely resembles our shared human heritage. Embrace the symbols that tie us together on the road and in the history books. If you cannot bear such a momentous social burden, just think of it as getting yourself a great looking, high quality set of grips.
