Default Grips??

Looking for some feedback on some comfortable black grips to reduce the vibration fatigue on long rides. I currently have the HD Silencer grips & pegs, and they offer nothing more than just looking cool. The Avons look like they would do the trick.

Grips?? Why, yes. My bike has two. It also has four footpegs.

Well, now that I've gotten that bit of silliness out of me, I have the HD chrome and rubber large handgrips. They feel much better than the stock ones. There are also matching foot pegs too.

Here's the HD sku: 56263-96A.

Avon Air Cush and Kuryakyn Iso Grips have a good amount of rubber to help with vibrations

Cant go wrong with the AVON style grips. Excellent anti-vibration compounds. Like the "Air Cushion" designer grip.

Bitwell kung fu grips, just put a set on not bad at all.
And once you install them you can just cut them off and replace them
without touching anything else,18.00 a pair.

+1 on the Kung Fu grips by Biltwell. I've had the HD Nostalgia as well and the Biltwells rock.
