I want to thank those who suggested the " Grip Puppies " . Got them in and got them on. Sure, they are not Kury ISO handgrips, but they satisfy the immediate need for a bulkier grip. At $10.00 +/-. delivered, it was the least exspensive addy I have purchased so far and the one I will use the most. Tanks.

And they work great with heated grips also. I put a set on my 08 and have ordered them for several friends that saw them and liked the way the feel. Just a little bigger than stock but not as big as Kuryakyn grips. Best $10.00 ever spent on the Wing.:)

They are sweet Carl. They send them through the Postal mail. They were here in 7 days, including the weekend. Puts a nice texture and feel to the hard stock grips.Don't have any road miles on them yet, but they seem good on the center stand.

They have 2 sizes, the one you want is large GPGL
They are the $10.70 ones. When you put them on put a small amount of liquid dish soap on the inside and slide then on, the soap will dry up and the fit will be tight.

I have just ordered the Grip Puppies. I have been wanting something that would not be as hard as the OEM grips, but knew that the Kuryaykin grips would not let the heat through very well. I am hoping that these will allow the heat through. $10.00 who can complain about the price?

cherokee: I did a heat test yesterday on the grips in the driveway. I didn't remark any difference in time or temperature. You have enough chrome on your bike!

Two Wheel... : That's right. It was you that broached the grips. Many others supported the product so I lost track of the where it all began. What a value. Wish I could could by that chrome plastic stuff for what it is really worth.
