Best grips to reduce vibration
 
I recently had a accident at work and long story short I lost half of my right thumb back in October. I have the edge cut grips on my softail and as much as I like them Im going to have to go with something that reduces vibration a lot better.At this point so far I havent been able to even grip the bars yet but I already know that vibration is going to be a issue let alone reach. I go in on the 1st of February to address the reach issue but I would like some recommendations on some really good grips if anyone has any input I would appreciate it.

Avon air cushion or Kuryakyn Iso-grips both seem to be popular for reducing vibration.

Avon also has memory foam grips that should also keep the vibes down.

Those Avons look pretty good, and not crazy expensive. Thanks Mother.

I will 'second' the Avon Air Cushion or Gel grips...

Might want to look into replacing your riser bushings if your still running the stock rubber ones. New poly bushings will help reduce handlebar vibrations.

My current bike came with Kurt ISO grips. Not wild about the flame pattern, but the vibration dampening with them is pretty good.

I run ISO Grips on all my rides. Comfortable and looks good.

+1 on ISO Grips. U can also get weighted ends to help and makes grips longer for added comfort

I've used Isso grips on my Springer for many years.

Looked into the vibrantor. Makes a pretty big difference. That along with some good grips will just about kill any vibration.
