And now for an opposing viewpoint... I have big hands so I thought I'd like these puppies, but I felt a little out of touch with the road feedback I get through the bars. Yes, the GL grips are smallish, but for some reason, with the gloves I wear, the fit is fine without these covers. My advice: blow 12 bucks to see if you love them. If you don't, heck, it's only 12 bucks and you can pass them on to a friend who may love you forever for your generosity. |

Rick Arnoldo came through again! Wingstuff now carries Grip Puppies. The BEST add-on for those who want a larger grip. Comparable to the Kury grips for size, and about 1/4 the cost. If you follow the directions with the soapy water, you will not have any problems. I did mine and must admit, it ended up being easier than it looked. Remember you should put the soapy water on the grips and the insides of the grip puppies. Leave the outside of the puppies dry so your hand can grip it. They do slide on, it helps when you are first starting to rotate them onto the grips to get things going. You can check my gallery for closeup pictures of these grip puppies in action. Three cheers for grip puppies, one GL1800 accessory that won't cost you an arm and a leg. |

Awesome, a little soapy water and yes their a bit tough getting on, but you don't want a loose fit. They give you the feel and comfort you expect. Heat comes through just fine. |

I've had these on the bike about months now. I bought them because on an '01 with factory heated grips the only option to put a larger diameter grip on the bike is more than I want to pay. These little foam devils are very comfortable. I was amazed at how much they actually did increase the overall diameter of the grips. I did a 1000 mile trip shortly after installing the grips and they made for a much more comfortable ride. Much less fatigue for my hands. As far as working with the heated grips, yes they do. You will have to turn them up a bit higher to allow the heat to radiate through the Grip Puppies (of course) but they worked just fine in that regard. 3 stars? Yup. The install was a real bugger for me. Tried soaking them in hot water, tried the soap on the inside, tried forcing them, tried yelling at them, etc etc. Finally, I used two long, small diameter screw drivers, one on each side of the handle bar. I kept twisting the screw drivers around the handle bar while maintaining one on each side of the bars and the grip actually slid up and into place without too much difficulty. Just be careful not to cut the Puppy, or you'll be buying new ones. |
