Pros: The feel of the grips are a lot better than the stock grips I had for my RF600R. Easy and great investment for any beginner rider to start working on their bike in order to get the in feel of customization
Cons: The ends are covered so had to cut the ends. Lucky by bar ends made the cut for me when I tried to put them back on with the grips in place.

Pros: Great feel.
Cons: Wear fine with smooth gloves (Alpinestars GP) but tend to wear quickly with rough palms like the Held Phantoms funky stingray palm.
Closed end, so you have to cut out the ends to fit bars with end sliders. No big deal, really...
Comments: A bit shorter (a few mm) than stock grips on a Ducati.

I received the package when promised and would like to say that these are the best grips I ever rode

Pros: Grips look great. Excellent styling and visual appeal. Perfect fit as far as length and no issues with slippage and working with OEM equipment on bars. Wonderfully "sticky" without being cumbersome. Awesome grips!
Cons: The only thing I wish the manufacturer had done was to make the cut-outs on the ends for quicker installation as this was not done. Other than manually cutting out the holes myself, no other compaints.
Comments: Again, great grips! I must warn you all tho, stickier grips make you want to ride harder so, be careful !!!

Pros: Comfortable. Look great
Cons: Must cut out end of grip to accommodate bar sliders. Poor durability
Comments: After only 1000 miles on my sport-touring bike the top portion of the grip is seperating from the core.

Pros: Look nice, Feel nice, no black marks on my hands after riding for hours (old grips were factory 14 years old)
Cons: They seem to be a little bit longer than my old grips and my throttle draggs a little now, I may break down and trim them a little.
Comments: No real installation directions but i had heard a while ago to use rubbing alcahol and it worked great. I don't know how else someone would get them on.
