| Looking to put some better grips that isolate the vibration more on longer rides. I have carpel tunnel and my hands go numb pretty quick out on the road.
Thanks |

| Thanks Beetle, I have some of those foam boots. They work decent but seem to tear easy going on. Is the stock bar 7/8"? I was thinking the Kuryakin Iso grips..Any experience with those? I used them on my Harley's and they worked really well..The Guzzi runs great BTW after your tune..
Thanks again |

| I've had carpal tunnel surgery on both hands plus increasing arthritis. I love my Koso heated grips and find that even in warm weather they give me some relief on the low setting. Linky [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.] |

| I like the Grab On grip covers. Amazon link is HERE. Warm them up and with a little pushing and pulling they go on and stay on. I don't have CT but the large diameter is more comfortable to me. |

| I'm ham-fisted, so primary reason for the grip puppies was to fatten the grips up. Upside is they reduce fatigue. Well, at least for me. Dish washing liquid applied to the rubber grip, aids installation. Yep, 7/8 at the gripping end.  |

| I've been tempted to try these Biltwell grips KLICKY. The rounded center profile sounds like it would be comfortable... |

| I installed a set of these on my ex '15 Triumph Bonnie and they were very comfy for my largish hands.

Ray I was going to mention the Progrips as well. Have a pair on Mostro Verde now and they're quite comfortable. |
