The Honda 89103-538-000 Grip is a genuine OEM replacement designed for a wide range of Honda outboard motors, horizontal shaft engines, tillers, and multi-purpose tractors, including BF-series outboards from BF40 through BF250, GX120 and GX200 engines, FR600 through FRC800 tillers, and Honda H-series and RT5000 tractors. As a direct OEM replacement, this grip is manufactured to Honda's own specifications, ensuring consistent fit and feel across the many machines it covers. Because Honda supersedes parts at serial-number breaks, buyers should verify their machine's serial number against the fitment table before ordering.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Quality — sourced directly from Honda, this grip matches the original in dimensions, material profile, and tactile feel, so it seats and functions exactly as the factory-installed part did.
- Broad Cross-Platform Fitment — listed for BF-series outboard motors, GX-series horizontal shaft engines, FR-series tillers, and Honda multi-purpose and compact tractors, making it a widely used Honda service item.
- Serial-Number Verification Recommended — Honda parts are superseded at specific serial breaks across this model range; always confirm your machine's serial number against the compatibility table to ensure this is the correct grip for your unit.
- Drop-In Replacement — replaces the worn or damaged original grip without machining or modification, restoring the operator's intended hand position and control feel.
A grip is a handle covering fitted to a control lever, pull handle, or similar operator interface point on Honda equipment. It provides the tactile contact surface between the operator's hand and the underlying metal or plastic handle, cushioning vibration and maintaining a secure, comfortable hold during operation. When a grip cracks, tears, or deteriorates, it can make the control uncomfortable to use and reduce the operator's confidence and precision — replacing it with the correct OEM part restores the original ergonomic feel and control response the machine was designed to deliver.
