Casper Posted May 24, 2016 Report Share Posted May 24, 2016 I'm looking for some gel grips, something to dampen some of the vibration. Any recommendations? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Helmutt Posted May 24, 2016 Report Share Posted May 24, 2016 I run cheap ProGrip 699 gels, but mainly for adhesion on the supermoto moreso than vibration dampening......although my KTM vibes so hard it makes my junk numb 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mello dude Posted May 24, 2016 Report Share Posted May 24, 2016 Cant go wrong with ProGrip 719s or 699s. I havent used any thing else in quite a few years and multiple bikes. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After trying many gel gloves that didn't help at all with numbness. I tried these: http://www.bikebandit.com/aftermarket-parts/motorcycle-control-and-brake/grips-universal/grab-on-motorcycle-grip-covers These helped prevent numbness quite a bit. The only downside is it makes the grip a bit larger. Felt weird at first, but I like now that I'm used to them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TimTheAzn Posted May 24, 2016 Report Share Posted May 24, 2016 HAH ThrottleMeister doesnt appear to have them for daytona's either. I think these companies are trying to tell me something at this point........ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heagachongoose Posted May 25, 2016 Report Share Posted May 25, 2016 Progrip 714. Pretty thick and super comfy. My big hands love them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
motocat12 Posted June 16, 2016 Report Share Posted June 16, 2016 replaced some 2 yr old 719 with 717 no difference in vibration I can tell. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lawrence1 Posted June 16, 2016 Report Share Posted June 16, 2016 Light on the bars is best for the roads I ride. Let go of that death grip. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NinjaDoc Posted June 17, 2016 Report Share Posted June 17, 2016 Have u tried just putting grip puppies over the grip? Pretty cheap to try , easy to put on, and if you don't like it take it off and always go for another more permanent mods. http://www.grip-puppy.co.uk I had it on many bikes and certainly made a big difference.

motocat12 Posted June 19, 2016 Report Share Posted June 19, 2016 My phone sensor says there's little difference between week old 717s and Today old Foam grips. Slight nod to the foam on Mean but the bike also warmed up a bit and I'm not swapping again to test switched order. I've seen bigger differences with bar weights or bracing, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
