I am thinking about installing new grips. Any suggestions on which ones would make a more enjoyable long ride...Thanks...

What he Said.

Kuryakyn also has the helmet locks that mount on the end of the Iso Grips.

I have Kury Pilots on my Street Glide with the throttle boss and I really like them. I recently put a set of Galindo Air cushion grips on my Springer and I really like those as well. I went with the Galindo grips on my Springer because even though I like the Kury's, it seems that everyone has them on their bike and I wanted something different. I have a set of Galindo Avon retro style grips on my Shovelhead chopper and they have held up well so I decided to give the air cushions a try. Different look and feel but so far so good. BTW, the Galindo's only cost me 47 bucks at my local dealer too so the price was right. Googled Galindo and came up with the thread on here regarding them.

best thing to do is put your hands on a few....
make sure you are wearing the gloves you ride with... that will make a difference
not all grips have the same outside diameter... and depending on your hand size something that works for someone else might not work for you...

Go with the kuryakyn-ISO.

My hands got numb after a while with the stock grips. The ISO grips solved the problem. More gooder now.
