Default iso vs pilot grip diameter

i have had kuryakyn iso grips on my heritage for a few years. love the throttle boss but the grips are a bit too large in diameter. i was looking at the pilot grips since they also come with a throttle boss. anyone know if the pilot grips have a smaller or the same diameter as the iso's, can't tell much from the photos i see.
Thanks, JohnP

I have had both and am running the Pilots now. They are slightly smaller feeling than my ISO's. I never really measured them, but the rubber felt as though it protruded a bit more on the ISO's. Not really a big defference though.

I use and like the Avon air grip. Smaller circumferance and very comfortable. I also use one of the add on bosses. Doesn't look as neat as the Kury with the builtin boss but works just fine.
