I had those on my last set of bars. They look good, but I could never really get comfortable with them. I found it hard to get the "rib" in the right spot. I think if I would have messed with them some more I could have found the sweet spot.

Got heated aileron grips for my bike but waiting to put them on. I rode a bike with aileron grips and I really liked them. So I think you will be happy with them.

Got them and love them, took a little tweaking to time it right for my hand but worth it.

My brother-in-law has them on his bike and I like them, they are on my wish list. Only problem is after only 10K miles they are starting rust a little on the chrome.

Had mine for two years with heat. No issues with rust and they're plenty comfortable.

I have the same problem. They were on my '08 when I bought it in September. They have sticky places on them where the rubber is deteriorating. It's really annoying.
