Alternatives to grip puppies

[Paul-Kent]

Anyone got a link to anything similar that they use?

I use Grip Puppies, they work brilliantly. Not sure why you'd need an alternative because some of the he cheaper versions fall to bit quite quickly.

I always have used them, just wondered what else was available

Chinese copies.

I think Oxford do fat grips which are replacement parts for your original grips. But fat.

Yeah - I use the originals but they're just foam, no reason why something like this shouldn't be just fine https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Universal-Motorcycle-Handlebar-Grip-Cover-Slip-on-Anti-Vibration-Soft-Foam-Grips-/265139926553?_trksid=p2349624.m46890.l49286

They’re not quite “just foam” they’re neoprene, the same material used in wet suits. I find they need to be replaced every few years as they do tend to degrade somewhat. But they’re hardly expensive.

They're good but they are not hugely fat .

Without a shadow of doubt , the most comfortable grips I've ever had on a bike are these Builtwell Recoil grips . Don't be put off by the way that they are aimed towards the custom and Harley market . These things are brilliant . OK , admittedly I've got the 1" version on the Harley but I'm confident that they will transform any bike . I actually had something of a very similar shape on both my GSXR's and I could ride all day in complete comfort . ( To my hands anyway ) https://customizedchoppers.com/products/biltwell-recoil-rubber-7-8-inch-handlebar-grips-pair-black?variant=11717943951402&currency=GBP&utm_medium=product_sync&utm_source=google&utm_content=sag_organic&utm_campaign=sag_organic
