I have the HD Nostalgia grips and can't see any difference. Except in the price tag! I still like em though!

I had full chromed before and in sunny days they got slippery when not wearing gloves, when I said "work better" I meant a higher friction coefficient

Bike looks great, not bad at all for under $50! I got the HD nostalgic grips and I see no difference between yours and mine, maby because it says "harley davidson" in tiny tiny print on the rubber. lol.

I bought the cheaper ones a few years back for my Fat Boy. Very comfy and appear to be the same damn thing that HD sells. Thinking about putting them on my Ultra too.

Just had my hands on those grips at the dealer. Very comfortable.
