Anybody ever try these grip covers?

They slip over the existing grips.

Amazon.com: Grab On Grips Grip Cover - Fits from 1.45in. to 1.65in. O.D. - 4.25in.L MC403: Automotive

I have used Grab ON covers on my last four bikes and currently on the R3.
I like them, reduces vibration, offers some squishability to the grips,
looks better than stock, and increases diameter for my comfort.

Question?

Wingandaprayer There seems to be 2 sizes The 1.25" - 1.45" or
1.45" -1.65". Either in 4.25" length or 5" length My question is when I measure grips the Throttle is 1 7/16"
( which converts to 1.44" ) and the left side is actually larger 1 15/32" ( which converts to 1.47" ) . I'm figuring the larger diameter in 4,25" length. I don't wanna ruin my stock grips incase I don't like these. Did they slide right over or did you have to lube them? Sorry to sound so anal but I didn't want to order the wrong pair. I suffer from numb hands and nothing really works, tried the qui gloves ( they suck ) Tried the kuryakyn ISO grips not much help either. Thanks for any help.

I use 1.45 x 4.25. They slip on over the stockers with no damage to the stock grips. I use a contact type cement to hold them in place, I have also used hairspray or silicone sealant to hold them.

pair or each

Are they sold in pairs or each?
I did not see anything mentioned about that.

They come in pairs, low cost I paid about $11.50 on line. Just ordered them, I'll give a review when I install them. I will probably use soapy water to install them incase I don't like them, I don't want glue all over stock grips.

I just ordered a set. For what it's worth, not having tried either brand yet, I did hear from someone who used both the Grip Puppies and the Grab-on's, and he preferred Grab-on's. Again this is just one persons opinion, nothing more.

I ordered the 4.25" long x the 1.45-1.65 diameter. I just put them on. They went on pretty easy with a little tugging and pushing. Had them both on in less then 2 minutes. They don't appear to slip when installed so I'll take a ride this afternoon to check them out.
