I like mine, hands stink, but they're comfortable. I'll probably get the throttle boss for both sides. That glue does dry right now though. I dry fit them and marked them prior to putting the glue on.

Had the iso grips on my sporty, put them on my Lo when I bought that. Have never had any issue with them, very comfortable and nice on the hands. I also have the throttle boss end and it seems to help a lot. Been very happy with them. Wife has them on her sporty and also loves them.

I used the black widow glue the first time I installed my ISOs. The left grip came undone after about 60 miles in a wicked heavy rain storm. That was the last time I used the black widow glue.
I have also had the throttle side grip inner shell separate from the outer shell/casing. The Isogrip glue fixed that too. Otherwise, I really like the Iso grips and have them on both bikes, just be aware that you may have to do some re-gluing.

Sounds like a bunch of butt scratchers to me.

I've used them for years, most comfy grip that I've had and for the size of my hands, they are a whole lot better than my stock ones ever were.

Got them ordered with the throttle boss, and went ahead and ordered the cruise mate. I figured I'd go ahead and replace the stock thumb wheel at the same time.

And being a mechanic for 24 years and a smoker I figure one more smell on my hands ain't gonna bother me. lol

I've had them for several years and like them a lot. Also recommend getting the ones with the 'throttle boss' tab. They allow you to rest your wrist on them and relax your grip a bit. Never had a 'rubber smell' though.

Got them. Like them. The throttle boss is a pain in the butt as far as I am concerned. Adjusted the crap out of it, then flipped it around backwards to get it out of the way. Finally just took it off. Couldn't get used to it.
