Generic Ruffian Dirt Bike Grips — Purple 120mm Half-Waffle, Medium Compound

ODI Ruffian Purple Half-Waffle grips are medium-compound 120mm motorcycle and e-bike grips engineered for lasting comfort, traction, and throttle compatibility.

These grips combine a responsive, soft feel with durable construction derived from decades of material development. Designed for 7/8" handlebars, the Ruffian Half-Waffle profile gives targeted fingertip traction without sacrificing a smooth, supportive palm area. They fit standard motorcycle and dirtbike throttle housings and are especially suited to electronic/e-bike throttles that lack a snap-cam mounting option.

How do these grips improve control on rough trails?

The half-waffle texture concentrates grip where fingers interact with the bar, reducing slips while preserving a consistent feel under the palm. The medium compound absorbs vibration yet retains rebound, so the contact stays predictable through bumps.

• Half-waffle pattern under fingers for focused traction
• Medium compound balances cushioning and responsiveness
• Closed-end construction protects bar-ends from impact

Will these fit my bike and throttle setup?

Ruffian grips are sized for 7/8" (29mm core; 30.5mm with waffle) handlebars and 120mm length, matching most dirtbike and motorcycle OEM bars. They are explicitly intended for motorcycles, dirtbikes and e-bikes — not ATVs — and work well with electronic throttles that don’t require a snap-cam mount.

• Core diameter: 29mm (30.5mm with waffle)
• Length: 120mm, fits standard 7/8" bars
• Recommended for motorcycles, dirtbikes, and e-bikes only

How durable are the Ruffian Purple grips and how should I install them?

Made from ODI’s medium compound, these grips are built for extended use while keeping a soft, comfortable feel. For secure, lasting adhesion use a purpose-made grip glue during installation; the reinforced closed ends help protect the grip lip from tearing and wear.

• Medium compound resists tearing and premature flattening
• Reinforced closed-end design adds impact protection
• Use ODI grip glue for maximum bond and longevity

What makes the purple Ruffian different from other grip styles?

The Ruffian Half-Waffle is a hybrid approach: more traction where fingers need it, smoother palm contact for comfort and reduced hand fatigue. The purple color offers a visual upgrade without affecting performance, and the material blend is tuned for real-world racing and trail conditions.

• Half-waffle balances traction with palm comfort
• Medium compound tuned for everyday and aggressive riding
• Available colorways to match bike styling

Who is this for: Riders who want a reliable, comfortable grip with targeted traction — motocross and trail riders, dirtbike racers, and e-bike riders using electronic throttles without snap-cams. If you need a 120mm, medium-compound grip that resists wear, cushions vibration, and gives confident finger purchase on rough terrain, these Ruffian Half-Waffle grips are a strong match. Always install with appropriate grip adhesive and verify compatibility with your throttle and handlebar setup before riding.
