Got them on the 09 BargeGlide with throttle bosses both sides. When cruise control is "on" the throttle bosses are perfectly even with each other and a great resting place for both wrists.

It's been said, but they are a personal touch. I had them. They look nice and reduce vibration. I have large hands and felt they did not fit me good. It felt like I had a loaf of bread in my hands. I am looking at the PM grips now. Rode my buddies bike with them and they felt more natural.

Like most others, had them on previous bike 5 years and loved them but moved to the Willie G's on my 08. Just put the HD leather stitch (look, not real leather) on the wife's bike.

I really like the fit and feel of those......thinking of buying another pair of those for my scoot.

First thing I do is put ISO's on a new bike. I like them that much. However, I would try the Avons if they are truely US made.

Steve, I had ISO grips on my Glide, they were nice, but in the winter, with gloves, I found them too big to grab and I have pretty large hands. A friend turned me on to the PM Renthal grips. They looked very simple and I was a skeptic at first. I've had them on for over 5000 miles now and I couldn't imagine riding with any other grips...Check them out, They come in chrome and also in all black too

I have the Harley Aileron grips Pt#56425-08. I have bad tendons in my fingers, painful to close. These grips are extremely comfortable molds to the hand. My Rheumatologist explained that girth impacts the feelings in the fingers, the smaller the girth the harder you squeeze to grip. The Aileron grips also get somewhat tacky when wet. I would not use any other grip.
