I used them years ago. The blocks wear like an old tire. That's why I didn't like them, plus they are shorter in length than the stock grips so don't fit right on the stock throttle tube. Hence my ugly remark, but enjoy them for what they are.
Ron... I'm not picking but what does wear like an old tire exactly mean?
They are 6 inch grips and seem to fit my "stock" tube perfectly. What is the length of original grips?
Maybe they have changed over the "years" since you tried them...things do change....sometimes....someplaces....somehow...
Maybe if I don't like these I'll just take a bunch of wraps with some nice duct tape ala Red Green and call it stock! I just saw some nice colorful new duct tape at the local hardware store. Rainbow too!!!! :blush:

I also have some hand issues like my brother had. While I don't have baseball glove sized hands I do have considerable arthritis in them as did he. So I put a lot of stock in what makes a good grip and what works for me should only work better with "normal" hands.
