Default x2 Grips?
Gents,

I am thinking of picking up a set of x2 grips to match my SG floor boards. Anyways I noticed it looks like they have a little chrome button on the end of them. It that just for looks or does it have some functionality?

How do you like them? I use to have the flame grips with my Deuce. They were okay, they rubber use to lift a bit where it met the crome. It use to Bother me..

Button on right grip is Tow/Haul mode I just switched from the Stealth grips to the Airelon set. Stealth just had too much of a chrome feel. X2 grips do feel good, but decided for a little more black look.

X2's look good and match the Street Glide boards etc., but I am probably going to swap mine out for the Stealth or Airelon's. They feel good but have started to bug me due to their shape. They are square like a jet fighter stick...takes some getting used to.
