Just curious? What kind of Grips are you all using? I have the Traction Grips now, but I have a feeling Ill be buying some new grips soon.

I bought some spider gel grips in blue n black.
Look and work great and kill some vibration too.
I like them because there not THICK gel like most that give u that mushy not connected feel.
These ones have the gel in little diamond patterns n its just enough to kill some vibrations but still let u feel nice n connected to the bars.

Those are nice... do any of the sponsors carry them? Where did you get these?

the traction grips are excellent grips. i changed mine to the rizoma grips and like them also. just a little less comfort in them but still better than stock.

I can't remember were I got them.
Not sure if any sponsors carry them.
But they're not hard to find.

I noticed my traction grips seem to wear quickly. Those are some decent looking grips Troll. BTW FireboltEric, I like those bar end mirrors, where and how much?

Vaneo1 the bar end mirrors are from Trojan (sponsors section) and are the "revers" style by rizoma. i forget the amount they cost me. they are expensive but are high quality and do not vibrate at all. like looking in my rear view in my car. much better over stockers'

Progrip SuperBike model 699. Got them on all my bikes except H D models. Best $7.95 spent on any accessory, they last years too.
Now all I need is a SuperBike to go with them.
