Mornin Doc, Chuck and Mick....get those pleasantries out of the way.

Mick....I forgot to use my sarcasm tags Sanchez comment

I have Avon grips I picked up in Rapid City during the rally last year. They are comfy, way better than the HD rips with the rubber strips. The rubber on those had become old and your hand and loves would stick to them.

I am a heel shifter too. I have the fairing almost removed to remove the speakers. Have to do little by little this early in the morning. The master bedroom is above the grudge so any cussing will travel straight to the innocent ears of my family.
