What grips to use?

[Guest]

I don't know if this is a tech question, but what grips does everyone have? I got big foamy krap i need to replace so I was wondering what people are happy with.

I have used gell grips on my last two bikes. I got one set off E-bay and they were OK, but still kind of hard. I now have ProGrips (I think they were called) on my GS and I like them. They are very gummy and soak up some of the vibration as well as offer good purchase, so you don't have to ride with a tight grip. I got them at my local dealer for $14CDN.

Renthal makes excellent grips. I have used several over the years, I usually go with the Superbike grip. They come in different compounds and colors. They have their own website also. good Luck, Ed.

Ditto on pro grips have them on all my bikes. Really remain very tacky throughout their life and good damping of vibration. I like those two qualities.

I like the ProGrips as well. Only problem I have found is that after sitting outside in humid weather, the rubber tends to get a little slippery. Not much you can do about that, and is probably the case with most rubber grips.
