I've had Johar foam "Superbike" griips on every bike since 1981. They are easy to install, fairly fat and very comfortable foam grips that don't cost much.

I ordered my grip pup's today... cant wait to get 'em
It took a little while to get used to them since they are fatter but they are great!

Grip puppies are great. However, definitly follow the directions, soapy water is a big help in getting them on.

Bilge pump. A novel idea.
+1 on the soapy water.
Just not TOO MUCH. They will slide off just as easily as on.

I went a different route using a grip puppy on the throttle and a thick ribbed grip on the left. I like the thickness of the grip puppy and the comfort of the ribbed for pleasure on the left side. :crazy:

formerly Renegade, get used to it.
Squirt them with Windex and use compressed air, they will slide right on with no fuss..+1 on the soapy water.

+ 1 1/2 Gunny on the soap or windex.
I used the Tacki Touring Gloves. They are thicker in the center with a oval shape that is quite comfortable. Only had one 200+ mile ride on them since I put them on but the difference was completely obvious. Much more comfortable than stock.
