    #699s Progrip here.



    Much more cushion and larger diameter than OEM.

    And, shoot, at $10-$12 a pair at the local Honda shop, I was sold.

    In the day "Grab-On" foam grips were the prefered, did wonders for reducing bar buzz.

      an alternative

      Get a Crampbuster for about $11 which will let you relax your grip on the throttle to practically nothing. Google it for sources...........

        Those work well for some, but I won't have one on my bike. Although you can relax your grip, you still have to hold your wrist just so to maintain your throttle position. I find it better to use a Vista throttle lock. That way, you can take your hand completely away from the grip.
