I just installed a set of Grip Puppies and boy are they great. This is my cheapest and Best upgrade yet. I highly recommend it to those who feel the throttle tension is too strong, it sure makes it feel better being a larger, better grip. They get my Farkle of the year vote. :yahoo:

 
Ooooh good point...

I'm really enjoying the ones I just installed, but yeah, I can see them being a sopping wet sponge on your gips.

We'll have to see how that goes.

 
I change mine every 6 months like clock work. They are great , but do get compressed and nasty after a while.

Also have grip puppies - love them.

Great idea about changing them every 6 months.

I got caught in the rain recently, left puppy got a slight tear in it, after the grip was soaked it just teared open.

boohoo, boohoo, now I'll have to order 2 pair a year...

 
Try 'em on the "equipment", you'll learn where the "Puppies" handle came from......... ;)

Or for the same effect with longer lasting results get these:

Cheap, durable, mine have 34k miles on them and are starting to look a tad warn.

They are larger like the ones you talk about, fixed the numb hand issue I was getting back when I first got the FJR and have been through rain, snow and sub 30 degree mileage. (and 117 degree heat).

I haven't tried the ones you guys are talking about, but these aren't much uglier. :rolleyes:
