Progrip 714RD Red 125mm Dual Sport Gel Grip

Awesome product

I hate those giant puffy foam grips and the like. I would get hand cramps from hanging onto something big and fat. These help a little with vibration and are a very soft tacky rubberlike substance with a texture that feels good with or without gloves. I know I should always wear gloves, and I generally do, but they feel pretty good without. The pattern of holes allows it to have give and cushion without being thick or mushy. I'd love some handgun grips with the same texture. The tackiness is just right to me as well. Whether I am wearing my usual gloves with unlined palm or thicker insulated gloves, I can basically just rest my hand on the handle bar without the throttle slipping. With thick gloves and the foam style, I have to constantly grip hard and shuffle the throttle around to keep the same setting on a long trip, and this will result in a cramp. Another bonus of the grip is that because it is a normal diameter, and not oversized, I can use a cramp buster with these. I only do so on long trips, but it is nice to be able to do. I should also comment that several friends who tried out my bike grabbed the handlebars without any prompting from me immediately commented on how good these grips feel compared to theirs. It's a simple and inexpensive part, but sometimes simple is best. I have bought two pairs of these, because the first got shredded in a wreck. Buying them again was a no-brainer.

Great little bit thicker grip can notice less vibration in bars on the DR thumper

Nice addition to the dirt bike. Comfortable grips and well suited to bigger hands.....less arm pump. Thanks

These grips are amazing for street riding. I was so up in the air on these and the Progrip 719s for my Suzuki SV650, but because of that V Twin vibration. It is so hard to find a good comparison between the two, people always just say I liked X but they don't say why or they never even tried Y. So I figured dual sport grips would be better since dual sports deal with a lot more vibration and way worse terrain than my bike. I was very happy with my choice, they're just amazing and I was shocked by the difference they made in vibration and just overall comfort. Very spongy, but still solid and thick. Fast forward, sold my SV650 and bought an FZ6 with an inline 4. A lot less vibration, but still there. This time I went with the Progrip 719s and I just hate them. They have that dual kind of material so you have to always make sure your hand is resting on the correct part, and even then it just doesn't really dampen the vibrations or feel comfortable to grip. Plus, they're usually two-tone and the lighter tone gets dirty so fast. Unless you get black black they'll look really bad. Add to that the fact the secondary material you have to rest your palm on/grip is easily destroyed and doesn't seem like it would last longer than a season. Sold them to a friend and bought some 714s again, and they just feel a lot better. Maybe it has to do with them being a little bit wider so your hand isn't forming such a closed grip so its slightly relaxed compared to other? Either way, they're just awesome.

Great value
