I've been looking at the driven d3 grips,look very nice and some reviews say that they are very comfortable.You can also get them in different colors.

I have progrips but I use a wrap of baseball bat grip to shape and make them larger, I ride both bikes a lot and wanted my CBR grips to feel more like my cruiser grips - better feel and control for me -

I have very big hands,glove size xxl.I found my self twisting the throttle more and causing my numbness.I got what looks to be a 1/4 turn throttle and works better than stock.Slight turn and its gone.I guess if I got thicker grips would have helped as well.

Where did you get the 1/4 turn throttle tube I have looked for them and cannot find them. BTW I just got some harris grips and love them.

Ah the throttle grip,well hrc sells them for about $100.00 I bought a throttle tube for a yamaha r1 and paid only $10.00 for it and works great.All you have to do is replace the throttle tube and adjust your cables underneath your air box and done.

I use a small but long flat head screwdriver insert it in between throttle and grip to loosen the glue and then just twist it off.
