I need to add a plug here for Avon grips (http://www.avongrips.com). I bought a pair a couple years ago (Drag Specialties via Zanotti's). Had a split in one last year (my fault), sent a note direct to Avon (not that Avon) and got a very nice phone call from them. They sent me a replacement at no charge.
Anyway, just ordered the new Avon Air-Cushioned grips (fingers tingling). $60 on the Avon website, $43+$9 shipping via Zanotti's. Billet aluminum and their own proprietary rubber. Looking foward to trying them out.
As posted earlier, I tried ISOs and didn't like them.
