its never too late to be who you might have been


« on: April 29, 2010, 04:45:28 AM »

hey all, I own the yellow peril and have some rizoma grips on it. I like them but want a change. I am looking into getting some plain old rubber grips in either black or in yellow. Show what you have or provide some links. Its going on this.

Thanks

I have Grip Puppies. Foam tubes which slides outside excisting grips.
Good grip and very comfortable. Slides on and stays on by using hair spray.

Pro Grip 714 Dual Sport.  I bought mine at a local Cycle Gear, but thay are available from most of the online shops.  Cheap, look nice, and feel really good (and lots of colors).

I'm partial to the Progrip Superbike 719.  Cheap, great feel, color-customizable, much less vibration than the Rizomas that I tried previously.

Yeah I've been rocking the Rizoma Sportlines for almost 2 years now.  Great for in the city... but frankly murderous on long trips even with bar end weights.  Their diameter is a bit small and I tend to use my thumb/index finger for throttle control and the sportlines have very little grip in that area.  So I'm changing over to ProGrip 717's when I get my 1100s http://www.bikebandit.com/progrip-717-road-grips

Man hands.  And numb hands.

I have some black Driven aluminum grips. I like them so far. Not as soft as gel, but they look pretty bad a.
