Default aftermarket grips? suggestions?

I am looking to get some new clip ons, so I need to get some new grips also. Anything you guys suggest? What are things to look consider when buying new grips?

Driven Grippy Grips ~ I'll probably buy another when these wear out.

You should go to a dealership and feel some different types. I like squishy gel like, some people like harder rubber.

Just depends on what your particular style and comfort is. Like previously mentioned, you will just have to go try and see which ones are the best for you.

ya I checked out 2 different kinds at the dealership. The guy at there has a few bikes he said he put the grips that had more cushion or the 2 on his bike he rides at the street which I could understand why = more comfort. BUT he said he put he thinner grips on his track bike, not sure why thinner made grips would be better for track?? Hmmmm

you want the thinner grips on the track so that you can get a better feel and feedback from the front end of the bike.

I always like the Pro Grip 719's, but I wouldnt get any gay colors, always solid black or grey for me http://www.motorcycle-superstore.com...-Gel-Grip.aspx
