Default Gel grips?

I bought some gel grips off of ebay for my new handlebars and I was just wondering if anyone else had gel grips and whether you liked them.

they're pretty nice, but the gel part rips out of the grip after a while (not sure if i'm talking about the right ones)

I've got a set of factory 909 gel grips and love them. Ive had them on the bike for about a year now and they have held up great.

I also have a set of gel grips on my quad. They're a couple of years old. Still holding up and comfortable as heck.

I bought the red and black ones from C&C somethingeranother for 8.95. I love 'em. no vibration in your hands after a long day on the trail. I am putting them on my 86 big red when it's done.

Just something to look at, I used to buy gel grips for all terrain bikes at Walmart for 3 - 6 bucks, put them on my son's quads when he was younger,cheap, work great, and very comfortable. At that price, you can afford to replace them a couple of times a year, and they are easy to find, almost any big chain store carries them.

I bought some on ebay last friday and they showed up yesterday. Pretty good considering it was going inbetween cali and oh.

They're the gel black&yellow grips. I like them a lot. They're way more comfortable than the aftermarket grips I used to have. Anyways, they look really nice on the bike (exact color match nearly) and feel great. I kept getting bad calluses from the thin grips. I rode a KFX400 with Oury grips and it was ridiculous how much of a difference it made. These are at least as comfy as those.

Grips I bought
