Willie G Skulls...

My hands are fine?? If your going numb relax and lighten up on your grip.

I have the Magnum Get-a-Grips on my King because they feel, IMHO, just like the vintage grips that came on rice back in the 70s which to me were very comfortable.

I've got HD Defiance grips on my Low Rider. Look good but not very comfortable. Back in the day I had Kuryakyn Iso Grips on my Sportster and they really worked for that 1200cc vibrator.
Good to know, I might look into a new set of grips afterall

Some aftermarket trips require a throttle tube. Might as well go 1/4 turn.
I've been satisfied with avon and biltwell.

On my RK I am running Avon chrome Air Cushion. They work pretty good but they feel tacky to me when the temps get up over 90*, so I have a set of thick leather grip covers I slip over them when it gets that way.

On my shovel I have the old coke bottle type. On my other bikes I have whatever was on when I bought them, I have leather covers on all of them.

I currently have the H-D Get-A-Grips on my Street Glide, but thinking of changing them out for some heated grips. I still like to ride in the winter, and this past winter, I pretty much made up my mind that I need some heated grips for next winter.

H-D Defiance grips. Larger diameter than the stockers and somehow easier to hold on to, at least for me.
