shotsfired Posted October 12, 2009 Share Posted October 12, 2009 See, and I hate the BMW grips. I plan on ripping em off shortly and installing new heated grips. Again. My old ones failed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

none Posted October 13, 2009 Share Posted October 13, 2009 I like foam grips, lightweight, shock absorbent and cheaper than rubber grips. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rcskisfast Posted October 13, 2009 Share Posted October 13, 2009 I tried the bmw grips they were ok recently went with kuryakan iso grips which I have on my HD and goldwing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OrganDonor Posted October 13, 2009 Share Posted October 13, 2009 I like foam grips, lightweight, shock absorbent and cheaper than rubber grips. I'll agree with dillweed here... I have the grip puppies over stock grips on both the Bird and the Wing. Love them, because not only are they comfy, but they increase the girth of the grips to fit my XXL hand better.

Skull Posted October 13, 2009 Share Posted October 13, 2009 I tried the bmw grips they were ok recently went with kuryakan iso grips which I have on my HD and goldwing. If Kuryakyn would sell a set before they were chromed, I'd be all over that. They're by far the most comfortable grips I've ever used.

rcskisfast Posted October 14, 2009 Share Posted October 14, 2009 You might call them maybe they would sell them to you unchromed, might start a new trend. Yeah on the grip confort I love my iso grips. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BackStreet Posted October 14, 2009 Share Posted October 14, 2009 Perhaps you don't need to replace, just add Grip Puppies. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
