Default My left grip makes my hand black

not the right, can't figure out why. Had the bike since new cleaned the grips with 409 still the same, always the left. If I push the bike into or out of the garage left hand black right hand is clean. Stock grips

It's just the cheap foam grips, switch to something else. I've been using chrome grips for yrs now, and no, they don't make your hands sweat and they don't get slippery (okay, now you can make your jokes)

I guess you'll just have to start wearing gloves! If you wear black ones, you won't be able to see the dirt.

3m makes a rubberized under coating that feels ok on your hands and should still match the look of the other grip
