Default .What grips to use on my new Wide Glide

I have looked at a lot of grips and can't decide what would look the best. I had Kuryakyn Iso grips on my last bike and I like the way they feel. I was wondering if anyone has installed them on their Wide Glide. Any opinions on how they would look on a Wide Glide. Just wondering if they would look OK or if this style is just totally wrong. Thanks for your comments.

They seem pretty popular.

I just switched to the PM Renthal Rubber grips. Not real flashy but the best feeling grip I've had.

I have this site saved on my computer:

Similar to PM grips, without the price. Many cool styles for decent prices, and not "kury" popular either.

Whatever you do dont buy the h-d knurled narrow band grips, mine have absolutely fallen apart. im switching to either the PM renthal ruber grips or the nostalgic grips.

Grips, man? Come on. Get whatever you like. If the Iso is comfortable, get it. No one is going to notice your grips but you unless you get some shiny, billet, abortions with iron crosses all over them. (Iron crosses can be substituted with any other trendy emblem, willie g skulls, spider webs, etc..)

I'm running the Kury's on my Fat Bob. I tried to go the Avon knock-off of the PM grips, but they don't fit right on the 1.25" handlebars. They way they are manufactured, there is a bolt/washer at the end cap which prevents the grip from going all the way on to avoid a gap between the switch housing and the step-up on the handlebars.

I'll probably eventually go with the PM Renthal grips though. I like the shape better than the Kury's.

I tried a few and ended up with these HD Black Diamond grips.

I think that's one of the nicest looking grips HD makes.
