Interesting product! I like how simple it is to install and it probably is quite comfortable. My gripe though it's pretty ugly. Really ugly. This would probably do for older bikes or enduros or something in my mind. I had ISO grips on my last 2 previous motorcycles (Suzukis) and I really thought they were better then stock. Now I have the rocket and I really like the stock grips, they're good looking and pretty thick as well. I won't be changing the grips on my Rocket.

How many people here ride without gloves out of curiosity. I always wear gloves so I could be biased.

Gloves and boots - ALWAYS!
For the past year - AGAT!
You give a rip about bar grip fashion over function!?!?!?

I have "***** Grips" on my GS500, a similar (cheaper) version of the grip covers , I found it's stock grips quite uncomfortable and these work well for me.
The stock grips on the rocket are fine for me.

Don't think I like em. Used to free dive in Northern CA and I've learned from experience that neoprene makes me sweat a lot. I would imagine riding around town when I can't get my speed up and I'm doing lots of work on the bars theses grips would start to feel nasty.

Well I was genuinely surprised.

Thought it was a lot of cash for so simple a product - but not only did it kill vibration these things actually made you feel more connected to the bike - the bars just fill your hands... Strange but true!

I know plenty of people prefer thinner grips but I like ISO grips for pretty much the same reasons, plus I reckon they look better.

Just installed a set of the grip buddies on my 2014 R3R. Figured for the price, they were worth a try. Now if we could get some rain to wash all the sand/salt off the roads. Then a bit of warmer weather. sds
