Anybody know where somebody is offering good grips at a good price. I don't want to pay $65 for the popular kyryakyn stuff and not really my favorite anyway, but I've seen some on JC Whitney's site. Are any of those good? I'm looking for under $20. Thanks!!

I bought a pair for $14 and they didn't come with the whole unit for the throtle. I had to cut the grip on the throtle side and peel it off. Still didn't look right. The left side was to long so I tossed them and bought ISO grips.
You get what you pay for.
I installed Jammer Vintage grips on my 800. They feel great and I love the old school look. I did need to tweek the bar ends before installing them but they work great for me.
Picked them up from here for $12 and shipping was free. http://www.middletennesseecycles.com/ZCART/index.php?main_page=product_info&products_id=219 (http://www.middletennesseecycles.com/ZCART/index.php?main_page=product_info&products_id=219)
I broke down and got universal ISOs. Might as well right???
Good grief...these ISOs are bigger around than I thought. I hope they're more comfy that way. Definately bigger than what's on the bike now. Oh well!!! I hope I like em!

Did you need to buy a throttle sleeve, or did the throttle grip just slip right on over the existing one?
I've always enjoyed the built in stash in the stock grips!
Just kidding but it does exist for those of that mind,

Bunch of info...

I used the stock throttle sleeve. one grip has a slightly larger diameter that the other. Make sure you figure out which on is the large. I hear it can be a bugger to remove if you force the wrong one on. :0
I just ordered some of the red vintage style grips... stoked!
