Memory Foam Avon grips and vibrations
I would like to hear some opinions on these memory foam grips and potential vibration dampening properties. Just got set (medium size) but feels these are too big for me and I wonder if vibration dampening is real deal here especially with small size. At this point I consider “get a grip” HD grips but I heard these dont do anything to improve vibrations at all. Please share your experience |
Both of my bikes have Avon grips on them so I am satisfied. Pretty good bang for the buck IMO.
|
I've had them on my for over a year. Feel great. No vibration thru mine. I have the large ones. I just bought another set because I'm getting ready to change bars.
|
Good to hear I will expect small ones will be less dampening but hope not much. I try to set up my bike for long distance comfort. |
I also have the large diameter ones and love them. They do a great job of eliminating buzz in the bars.
|
Put a set on my 2016 883 Iron . Like them alot and yes they have reduced the vibration for me . Would not spend one time on the aftermarket Harley Taiwaneses / China junk grips that Harley puts their name on and sells . Avon grips are American made, support them .

Keep it coming guys I am still torn apart but so far it is favorable for Avon. HD style is more ergonomic and looks better but I value this anti vibration properties for my needs. Would like to hear from someone that has small one as well. |
I use the small Avon memory foams and cramp busters on both grips. I have carpal and cubital tunnel in my left arm. This combo has kept me going for longer than anything else I’ve found |
Yes I already installed Steiger Performance vibration dampers as first step and it helped a lot. They recommended kury ISO grips as good combo but I cannot stand them (look of it) so I consider memory foam instead. Wont lie not big fan of Avon look too but better then squeezed sausage of Kuryakyn ISO |
I have the 'Get a Grips'. They work fine for me. Strangely enough, when I bought a Harley Davidson, I factored in that I was gonna get vibration thru the grips. Installing polyurethane riser bushings helped. But there's never been so much vibration that I found it objectionable.

As far as look and shape “Get a Grip” are my favorite they just feel right but also cost double but I will say cost is not main factor with this purchase. |
I have the Avon Air Cushion grips with Throttle Assist and they are great. Much better than what the bike came with. Your hands don't tire so much and the bigger diameter makes them more comfortable.
I ride a Softail Heritage and the grips dampen a lot of the vibration coming from the engine and from the windshield at higher speeds. Also, the grip is very good with and without gloves. I have the chrome ones and after two years they still look like new. They also sell a large selection of grip ends to suit your taste. I should also mention that installation was very easy. |
Allright guys My Avon is ordered now Thx for sharing |
