I have the Kuryakin ISO grips on my Ultra and am happy with them. I have Sac grips on my Street Bob and really love these. Real leather, relatively inexspensive and are great if you have somewhat larger hands

I'll throw another vote in for the Kury Isogrips. Hands used to go numb on long rides with the stock grips. Haven't had a problem since the Kury's were installed. The Throttle Boss also helps on the long rides.

Putting these on this week. Glad you like them.

I hate the stock grips. Too squishy and I guess my fingers are too long for them. After sampling as many grips as I could on skoots (with owner's permission) I tried the Nostalgic Grips. Not only do I think they look fantastic on the Fat Bob, but they're really comfortable and I feel they allow me to operate the bike properly (not a feeling I got out of the stock ones). The only downside: sometimes they leave a manly black rubber smear on your palms. I can deal with that. Others may be unable to.

I had the Kury grips and they were great, but I sold the handle bars and included them. Went with the PM grips with Renthal rubber this time and love the feel and look.
