Default Let's see your billet grips

Looking at all chrome grips, share yours an opinions on them.

I like the "billet phat grips"..worried the smooth finish might get slippery

Those are pretty smooth for the most part...they get slick when sweaty? Left uses set screws? Ever come loose

These are LeRoy Thompson grips. As you can see I have matching caps and footrests and passenger pegs. I like the antique copper. They are very comfortable.

Man, never again for me. Rock hard billet grips sucked, were slippery and cold as all get out in the winter. Rubber cushion or foam from now on. But thats just me.

I got these chrome/rubber collection and hate them with a passion! Rubber gets sticky, hands get dirty and for more than an hour riding one of the rubbers rub just perfect on my palm to give me blisters

I have the Exile knurled billet grips. not slick at all, but definitely need to ride with gloves, they get a bit uncomfortable on bare hands.
