Re: Grips

I want to feel as if I am touching the ground. I dont want anything that would dampen the feel I get through the bike. No bar end weights, no squishy grips. I dont even like a stock seat (although I am using one right now).

Re: Grips

I use Driven grips,(Not them stupid D3s) after switching from Renthals. I like the driven a little better because they are thicker than the Renthals without losing the feel.

Re: Grips

I've been using these Spider Peak grips lately. Thinner at the inside for feel and thicker at the bar ends for comfort.

That is about the difference between the right and left sides.

29 for the clutch side, 32 for the throttle side?

I've actually seen those in person when the manufacturer stopped by our shop. Damn good grips and we will be adding them soon after seeing them in person. I would put them on par with Renthals for sure
