    Gel grips are what you want. I bought a pair from eBay and they fell apart.
    So my opinion is buy them local, then you have a face to deal with if they stink..

        pro-grips make good, inexpensive grips. I just put some on my little ninja that made a huge difference. They look cool too!
        The truth knocks on the door and you say, "Go away, I'm looking for the truth," and so it goes away. Puzzling.

          as far as good ones i dont have a clew. but the harris gripps are hard as can be. they look good. but they are verry hard. so you better have good gloves if you go with them.

            I've got a set of Progrip 725's on my Kat and I love them.

            But md86 is correct in that the right gloves will make the ride even better. Personally, I like Olympia gel gloves; not too expensive and in concert with the gel grips make for a nice, comfortable ride.

                I picked up some gel Pro-Grips from cycle gear. My hands don't hurt as much since I replaced them

                      I run them on everything
                      from dirt, sport and my cruiser

                      my VT600 is a single crank pin Vtwin (like a harley) solid mounted engine and vibrates like crazy and the gel grips work awesome.
                      I run 862 on the VT600

                        I actually did NOT like the Progrips . The extra diameter made my hands cramp , and I never grew accustomed to it , so I swapped 'em back out for stock .

                          Extra diameter?
                          It depends on the model of grips I guess. Mine are actually smaller and I prefer them because I have smaller hands.
