I may end up going with the traction grip, but would something like this also work on the XB:

you need to find out the OD diameter of your bars and the diameter of the grips I believe.

Standard Harley grips are an inch.
Standard Buell (XB) grips are 7/8 inch.
So no, those probably wouldn't work.
But, if you want fancy grips, just look around, the Japanese cruisers sometimes use 7/8th inch bars.
