After taking a couple of 100+ mile runs on "The Mule" I'm noting that the Stock Grips on my M2L are anything but comfortable. They are Thin, Hard, and outside edge (Sakuto for the Karate-Ka!) of my hands starts cramping after a while.

What seems to be the Grip of Choice for longer rides on these Old School Buell's?

I really liked the traction grips, but they are now obsolete

Traction grips can still be found, I like the shape, it seems like a good design.

Hello.
Traction grips are the best choice,IMHO.
I´m very satisfied with them.

I had super track gel grips when I got my M2. I put on traction grips and they seemed to stop the cramping...

Pro Grip makes something sort-of similar looking as far as wide in the middle.

http://www.progrip.com/catalog2010.asp

look at page 14-15, under the Rally section number 714 on the right. They come in red or black.

I have traction grips that I love and would like to outfit another handlebar. I might try these. Al sells them too.

Has anyone used these and can compare?
