I used black Jive grips for much of the early 90s. They were pretty much the same as the ones you can buy now. I think the end plug was different. I think on the early ones the grip went over the end of the bar and had a little bar plug that youd put on under the grip. There are a few different grip patterns. Handles were the ones I used to use.
On a NS tip, United Bikes have a new grip called the UJive. Very similar to Jive grips, very thin and feel great. Ive just fitted a pair to my bike. Here is the 4Down info on them:

Yep, they have got the "over the top" bar end, not the "under the grip" ones. Other than that I think they are the same.
