Do all Harley grips need modification to fit?

I've been looking for a pair of flame grips for my 1300 R and I do not like the Kuryakan ones. The flames look too fake. I saw a pair of really nice flame grips at a Harley store, but I don't know what the differences are and if they will actually fit. Any advice would be appreciated. The grips are chrome and rubber if that matters. Thanks in advance.

Grips

If the grips are too big for the switch box housing they will not fit without mods. If they are too small they will wiggle all around and be loose or rattle. Baron's sales a flame grip for the VTX. But they are not for people that put alot of miles on their bikes. More Show, Than Go. Here's a Pic of mine. GG :D

All HD grips have throttle sleeve molded into the grip. So you have to grind the housing and take off the honda throttle sleeve. here's mine
