Changing handlebars

[USMC Old Dog]

When changing handlebars to 2+2 wide sweeper I assume that you have to also put new grips on. What grips have you used and why do you like or not like them? Thanks in advance.

Ride often, ride long, ride safe!

Drag Specialties, I like the nostalgic look and feel. Looks the same as HD but cheaper The TBW grip you have will slide off so it could be re used. If you work at the LS grip spraying inside with some WD 40, twisting the grip and shoving a pick tool down the inside you can sometimes get that grip off with NO damage

Kury makes and sells good products. I beta tested grips and foot pegs by them their first year in Sturgis

Avon Grips Chrome Air Cushion Grips with Throttle Assist. I like these because they are not too fat and the throttle assist is really handy in stop and go traffic.

+1! I went with the same Avon grips, but I chose the black ones.

I had used Kuryakin grips for years, but I like Avon better and they are less expensive.

Here is a link to the thread I started when I installed them, with pictures.

I also like the get a grips. The knurled rubber gives you a good grip.

I have these in all black. It's like the checkering on a Colt 1911.
