Default Hand Grips

I am looking at changing out my stock grips.
My ride is Sierra Red & Brilliant Silver.
I know each has their own preferance but, I want to hear you choices.
What style do you all have?
What about fit and feel?
Harley, Kuryakhn, etc...?
How hard are they to change out?

As always,
Thanks,
Magnoliarunner

I have the Kuryakyn Iso-Grips with Gold trim rings. They absorb most of the vibs and look great too. Everyone we ride with around here has them. I had them on my old Softail too

Good luck.

Second bike with the Kuryakyn ISO-Grips and have to agree with luvmyflhcui definately takes away vibes. They also are a little bigger around which is great because I have XXL hands and I can also hold a throtle position with a very light grip.

I have the alternating chrome/rubber ones from the MOCO, and feeling "like a tractor tire" is a pretty apt description. Does take away the vibes and feels fine with gloves on, gives a good grip, but a little bumpy for bare-handed... Don't have a picture, which I know would help, but they are pretty obvious they're going to be lumpy when you see them in the box. I'm just stupid sometimes....

I have the Kuryakyn grips with the Throttle Boss. They look good and I like the throttle boss.
