Default Smaller grips

was wondering what size stock grips were and what are some recommended smaller grips to replace the stock SB grips, they feel a bit big for my hands.

I've run Biltwells for about 2 years now. I love em. Super grippy, nice and thin and price is right. I also like to use the Avon's with the rubber inserts. They look like the PM contours but for only 1/3 the price.

Sportster grips, 04 and on. Much smaller, I run them on my 02 Dyna. And they're cheap.

I've ran Biltwell, Avon Old School, Baxter, and these Motogrips http://motogrip.net/motogrip/#/motogrip/?page_id=228

They're all pretty good. The Biltwell Kung-Fu grips are my least favorite, but only because they get very sticky in the hot sun. The Baxters, in my opinion, are the best of the MX style because the material is hard enough to not twist or flex.

My favorite from all four are the Motogrips. They are made of a silicone gel material that is soft to the touch, but provide a great grip with or without gloves.

Keep in mind though, the Baxter, Biltwell and Motogrips do not have built-in throttles. You'll need a throttle tube to make them work. Biltwell makes one called the Whiskey Throttle Tube that works great.

The Avon Old School and Jack Hammer grips are nice because they have the throttle tube built-in.

This is the Whiskey Throttle Tube. Other people make them too.
