Hi Guys, went on a roadtrip this last saturday and got off after 80 miles or so and had some tiggleing in my hands so i was wondering what is the best grips to soak up some more vibes in these old evos?? iso grips, nostalgia grips? I have the old stock black grips now......thanks for any help or recommendations......later

 

Greetings Sno-man.

I have stock grips on my FLSTC and have NEVER had a vibration issue.

Are you sure it's the grips?

 

Ride more and adapt or there use to be something called a "handle bar snake" it was a tube that you placed in the handle bar to absorb the vibrations. Also you could replace the iso mounts with the red ones, they seem to absorb more of the vibrations.

 

i probably need to ride more, i don't feel any vibes when riding feels smooth as silk but when i get off after a long ride of 1 1/2 hours or 80 or so i can feel it in my hands.....

 

Hmm. I would agree. The farthest I've ridden mine non-stop is 150 miles.

No tingling............

 

I had that on my 93 FXR. Changed to Avon Air Cushion and still had it. Went to doc and found out I had carpal tunnel. Problem went away after surgery.

 

I use gloves with gel inserts, helps a bit, mine got a little more of a buzz in the handlebars when I change from rubber to urethane riser bushings. But the bike feels much better with the urethane bushings .

 

I like my iso-grips. But I've just accepted vibes as part of a Harley. At least softail EVO.

 

 

ok ok ok, what i meant to say is everytime I get off the bike to gas up on a long ride every 1 1/2 hours that is when i feel it in my hands.......
