ISO grips

How do you guys clean the rubber part of ISO grips to keep the black stuff off your hands?

RE: ISO grips

That was my biggest complaint about ISO grips. It would take but a couple of days after cleaning until they would start doing it again. The only way I figured to prevent it was wear gloves.

RE: ISO grips

Easiest way I found was to replace them. I run the stealth grips. Love them.

RE: ISO grips

Just installed ISO's on my 08 Ultra and it's the first time I've used them on a bike. I'm assuming soap & water will do the trick.

Just for a little while. The rubber pads become very sticky and attract everything. I think the sun even plays a part in adding to the stickiness of the rubber slowly breaking it down. Even when I wore gloves my gloves they would stick to the pads of the grip. After sitting all dayatwork I would come out and grab hold and feel a nice new layer of dirt had layered them during the day. It got to where I was cleaning them every morning. After 4 years of having them I will not buy them again.

RE: ISO grips

I always wear gloves, so I never even knew this was an issue.

RE: ISO grips

I have an 08.... so there's not alot avail yet. Personally I think they suck I will never get them again.

I'm waiting on the PM grips or even Harley grips as they don't need glue.
