Thanks Dalt10! Nice bike!
I settled on and purchased a set of 1.5" Memory foam grips, same as yours but in chrome.
I needed some kind of vibration dampening as I suffer from Carpel tunnel and Arthritis in both hands and trigger finger in my left!
I am hoping this will quell the buzz!

Oh Man! These Avon Memory foam grips are da bomb! Quelled the buzz and I was able to keep my hands on the bars for a longer period of time before shaking the numbness off! They actually feel better than the Iso grips I ran on my XL back in the day.
Highly recommended!

I have a set of their heated grips on my Dyna.
The GRIPS are nice. The heated part never worked properly. I've pulled the wiring and controller out, leaving just the nice grips.

If you want more of a custom look in a grip that's super comfortable, check out http://www.coolsac.com/categories/Grips/
They are amazingly comfortable and there are lots of customizing options. I've had two sets on two different bikes. They are pretty fat but you adjust to them quickly. They're made in Buffalo, NY and the folks there are great to deal with.
No, I don't own or have any interest in the company. They're just great grips.

Just adding footnote on the Avon grips. Their throttle assist doesn't work on the larger size memory foam grips. I think the large ones are 1.62 in size. The throttle assist works with the 1.50 sizes though. I have the Memory Foam 1.62 on the bike but wanted the throttle assist so I thought I would try out the Air Flow Grips. I've got them here but haven't changed them out yet. They are easy enough to install compared to then old cable throttles and an added bonus no glue. This is my first TBW bike.
