Royal Enfield 1120060/A – Left Hand Grip for Counter Weight – Thunderbird X 350 & Thunderbird X 500 (BS4)

Royal Enfield part 1120060/A is the genuine Left Hand Grip (Grip LH for Counter Weight) used on the factory handlebar of the Thunderbird X 350 and Thunderbird X 500 (BS4). In the official Thunderbird X 350 and X 500 exclusive parts catalogues, this part is clearly listed as “Grip LH FR Counter Weight” in the handlebar section, alongside 1120061/A (RH throttle grip) and 1120089/A (handlebar).

Unlike generic aftermarket grips, 1120060/A is designed to work perfectly with the OEM bar-end counterweights. The inner bore, length and closed-end design match the stock damper weight and counterweight screw, so there’s no stretching, slipping or cutting required. The rubber compound and pattern give a comfortable, non-slip feel for city commutes and long highway rides while still matching the original Thunderbird X look.

If your left grip is torn, hardened or damaged after a fall, replacing it with this OEM grip restores the factory ergonomics and finish of your handlebar. Because it comes from the Royal Enfield Essentials line and is sold worldwide as “HAND GRIP LH 1120060/A”, fit and quality are exactly what the bike left the showroom with.

Pair this with 1120061/A (RH throttle grip) for a complete, refreshed grip set on your Thunderbird X.

FAQs

Q1. Will 1120060/A fit my normal Thunderbird 350 or Classic 350?
A: 1120060/A is confirmed in the Thunderbird X 350 & X 500 exclusive handlebar catalogue as the left grip for that specific flat handlebar with counterweights. Other models may use different grip lengths and inner bores, so we treat those as not confirmed.

Q2. Does this grip include the throttle tube?
A: No. This is the left-hand (clutch side) grip only, without any throttle tube or mechanism. The right-hand throttle grip with rotor is part 1120061/A, sold separately.

Q3. Is it open-ended for bar-end mirrors?
A: From the Thunderbird X catalogue description “Grip LH FR Counter Weight”, the grip is designed to accept the OEM bar-end counterweights using the stock counterweight screw. Aftermarket bar-end mirrors that clamp on the weight or screw can usually be used, but always check your hardware length.

Q4. How do I confirm if this is the right grip for my bike?
A: If your registration and VIN confirm Thunderbird X 350 or X 500 (BS4) and you’re using the stock handlebar 1120089/A, this is the correct left grip. When in doubt, share your VIN and we can cross-check in the Royal Enfield microfiche before you place the order.

Q5. Can I buy a pair of grips instead of just the left side?
A: Yes. For a complete refresh, combine this part with 1120061/A (RH throttle grip) so both sides match in feel and wear. Many Thunderbird X owners replace both at the same time during handlebar swaps or post-crash repairs.
