The original grips for the Sherpas as I know where made by Gonelli and are in black color, (as you mentioned grey in your first post?), The Gonelli grips have the Bultaco logo stamped in the rubber on the ends of the grips.

Are you searching these, should I post a pic for comparison?
(I don't have made any pic's yet, but it's easy to do so)

EDIT
Found them, here the standard ones:


With rips, Enduro:


Modiefied standard ones with an extra noth to safty wire the grip
and no outer humps on the ends. (Back then it was very commen to grind away the outer humps of the grips, here this is already done).

No idea, the modern one's are easy to get, the old style ones I haven't seen in decades.
They where commen on the faster dirt bikes, on trials bikes I haven't seen them at least
where I live. Having an old enduro bike too, myself and even the guy's riding likewise
old crap through the woods now use the newer ones, (if they mount them),
as the older foam of these "anti blister discs" easily soak up water and mud.

I use gloves while riding so no need here.

I postet this interesting question in two more enduro/MX nike related forums, we'll see i
someone has a ressource.

Still available in Spain through Motos del Abuelo: info(at)motosdelabuelo.com

Their parts inventory you find here: Bultaco parts catalog (It's a PDF, will take time, look up page 16. (2,50 €!))

I don't know if they speak English, in my experience it's best to communicate in their language?
