Just ordered my Suzuki 20w50, 7/8 bar foam grips, new petcock and new clutch plates.
The old foam grips were crap... My bad... 
More fun coming  |
Are the foam grips the ones that slip over the normal grips? I had the Grip Puppy slip ons and they were great. Vibration(the little that there was)was barely evident but the biggest difference was the added diameter of the grip. No more wrapping the complete hand around the grip so there was no more cramping in my hands on a longish ride. That and a couple Throttle Rockers(left and rightsides)made for a lot less fatigue in my hands.
Another reason for hand fatigue was my riding gloves. I bought some excellant riding gloves with padding and armor but they were just a tad short in the fingers that was really a bother. I did find that a pair of Red Wing gauntlets were very comfy. They had a light Thinsulate liner too.
