Default The ODI Grip review

Several of us mentioned trying the ODI grips on our bikes. I ordered a set a couple of weeks ago and installed them. I finally put a couple of hundred miles on with them this weekend and was really impressed. My previous grips were the Performance Machine grips that had the Renthal grip installed on them. They were comfortable but nothing special.
The new ODI grips are very comfortable and reduce the vibrations on the hands quite a bit. The grips really feel good to the bare hand but I always ride with gloves. I think the throw may be a little slower with the ODI grips but they are still responsive enough for me. If you need new grips, give them a try.

I just got the ODI Hart grips and I was very happy with them. I like how grippy they are. I personally didn't notice any vibration reduction myself, but my fat bob vibrates hard than my wife's vibrator.
I do really like the lock in place technology and made install SUPER easy. I mean it's grips install isn't hard but you get what I mean

Looks like you are running hand guards. Where did you find those? I'm used to having the extra protection for rocks, bugs and Pigeons. Caught a Pigeon at 85+ mph on my Heritage and I was glad I had them. Thanks.

No Hand guards, Those are just the levers in a up close picture.

That's what they call "levers" in Kansas

Those grips gave me a Flashback to my Dirt bikes

I'm not sure what this means^^^. Can you elaborate on what "the throw" is?

It means it does not open the Throttle quite as fast as the original. The cable ramp is a little different. I noticed the same thing on my bike. It also means your hand turns a little farther to get to wide open. On a positive note, the throttle is not as sensitive over bumps etc because it moves a little slower.
I also have a set of ODI grips on my 2022 Road King with electronic throttle. There is no difference on that bike.

Don't know how this ended up in this thread. I was responding to a post in 2024 Touring... It was late
