Got'm installed about a week now.
Installation was easy. Followed as per directions took about about a hour.
Started with the clutch side, using a hack saw, i made a small cut behind the grip(for reference). Removed the grip with soap and hacked away on handle bar(2 minutes at most).
Followed directions, and in and done.
Throttle side, I soaped up the rubber by shoving a screwdriver between grip and plastic sleeve and sprayed soap between. Slid right off(both rubbers saved,,,,,you know what i mean).
Marked the throttle control position with a magic marker and disasembled.
The inner plastic has tabs sticking out,,,,those have to be removed,,,,snip off and flush off.
I needed to remove the vibration dampening tape(blue tape) cause fit was way to tight.
From there, follow the directions.
My opinion:
Vibration is noticeably reduced but not gone.
The shape of the grips are great(good,,better,,best,,great,,outstanding), very comfortable.
Clutch side can be moved while riding for perfect fit(will not loosen up).
Throttle side is adjusted after you pull over.
The design is reminds me of a throttle boss,,,adjust it to crusing speed(72 mph for me)and ya don't have to grab the throttle,,,,just rest your palm.
Another plus(?) that stands out is at a stop sign AND accelerating,,,,,,smoother and quicker hole-shots and straight wrists. VERY little re-grabbing of throttle between shifts.
I was sent one of the first syles of foam outers. They acted like a sponge when it rained and "Ken Hunter" is sending me the updated version.
Ken also sent me the "Heated Version" by mistake. Haven't wired them up yet,,,if they turn on and work(is that an oxymoron?) i'll send him the monies for it.
MY Overall Rating From One To Ten,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,10 on comfort,,,,,,,,,,,,6 on appearance.
Negatives:
Appearance,,,,they don't stand out like chrome(kurakyns).
