Default Kury ISO Grips - With or Without Throttle Boss ?

As the title says, on the Kury Iso Grips I'm trying to decide between the standard Iso Grips and the grips with the Throttle Boss. What say ye ?

I don't have cruise installed and on long rides, on the surface it would seem to be a good thing.

Go with the throttle boss, you can always take it off. Some also put one on the left side. I use it all the time.

I don't have one on mine but I have cruise. Could come in handy for long rides though.

throttle boss on both sides. It lets you relax your hands which for hours of riding is worth it.

I didn't like it. it just seemed to be in the way when the throttle wasn't opened much and when I adjusted it down to alleviate that then it seemed to far down to rest on. So I got rid of it and got a bike with cruise.

Thumbs up

I had ISO grips on my previous bike with the TB and I thought the grips were great and the boss was a nice addition that got used often. Like the previous post said - you can remove it if you find you don't like it but i think you'll like it.

Worth its weight in gold. There are times that you can't use cruise control and the TB is a great alternative.

When I first got the TB I had it set a little too high and when I rocked my hand back a little to grab some brake I rocked the throttle on. Oops!
