Does anyone know where I can get a Throttle Tube that has the threaded end still intact? I am putting stock grips on my Interstate and my current tube has it broken off.

I love OEM grips. They come with the throttle sleeve...

Thanks  Mike, but I already have the grips from another endeavor. Just need the sleeve.

The sleeve is not sold separate (unless you could find it used on ebay, etc.)  It comes with the OEM grip.  Part No. 53145-MM8-000.  Price at Partzilla is $26.49 plus shipping.  Partzilla cross references a lot of different bikes.

Might try a parts wanted in the classified.

The Part Number is for a Standard, not sure if the Interstate is the same.

 I have the same issue a back and had to order them from my Honda dealer and take the original grips off, it was a pain but there was  no other options.

As noted above, you can't buy the OEM throttle tube by itself and aftermarket tubes don't have the threaded nipple on the end for the OEM end cap to screw onto.

So, I get these: http://www.jpcycles.com/product/ZZ50014

I like the look, better quality than Kuryakyn, less expensive than Kury and about the same price if you replaced both OEM grips, and come with a throttle tube.

Story of my life... Day late and a dollar short. crazy2
If it were raining soup I'd be outside with a plate and a fork. tickedoff
Just before seeing this last post I ordered a new right sleeve and grip from BikeBandit for $31.03.
I placed the order, and was coming back here to thank everyone and I saw a note that I may want to check the thread before posting...
Yep, that was  your post Poppa.
Thanks everybody!
