Default Getting a grip on ur Polaris

Hey you all -

I am considering an after stock grip replacement
on my handlebars. I have experienced alot of hand
fatigue when riding a while, some tingling and
numbness sensations. I hear the Mad Dog (?) gel grips are
good but are not made to last.

What is everyone else using? And what do you recommend
to go with or stay away from?

Much obliged!

R'

Oury IMO, thick block pattern 5"atv grips. Dennis Kirk has them in colors

this tends to be most popular...............

I have to agree, Oury grips. You'll have to trim the flange on the throttle side, but they are nice.

Another vote for the Oury's, they're as good as it gets.....

Just replaced mine about 6 months ago. Have to look at what brand it was, but it is so much more comfortable than the stock ones.

I got a set of gel grips on ebay that are REALLY comfortable (half gel half rubber). got them on my sportsman and trailblazer. go to item 110076774773 on ebay. I havent had them a really long time so I dont know the longevity but everyone that has seen my bike in town wants them - even my dealer wanted some - he said they were some of the best grips he ever fealt. but who knows.........he may be stupid [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]

I use blue Oury grips. The scott grips and spider grips are comfortable but wear out quickly.
