I could totally just wrap mine with bar tape... hmm. Maybe try the grip puppies first for $20. I have liked that material on bicycle grips occasionally.
I know the bar is 7/8 inch. Not sure how that transfers into the handlebar grips. There might be more information once you filter the Livewire on the HD website. I have some larger diameter grips on mine, and it does help a little with wrist fatigue compared to my other livewire with stock handgrips.

But not for stock. Which according to my adjustable wrench is 1.25 inches. Which seems quite small but i means all those aftermarket ones are 1.4 - 1.6 So quite a bit bigger. I think I will try the $20 grip covers and see. I can also see how you could easily wrap with high quality handle bar tape and be very near those others. Might look ugly. But depends on the take. And not clear how well it would stand up to the twist throttle.
one of the biggest diameters on the HD website are the cheapest ones, $73 for the nostalgic hand grips and then $93 for the Get-A-Grips, each are 1.6inch diameter. I can't find the ones that are on mine listed on the website, but they certainly feel better.
