Comfy grips?

Can someone recommend a pair of more comfortable grips that would fit my 620.

Thanks.

Pro Grip do the gel grips, I use Renthal medium. They do two lengths so just check yours.

Thanks, will have a measure up first, I can’t really see the difference between the 723 and 724, it looks like the 724’s are Dual Density?!

Hi Space. I got some Pro Grip 723s (or 4s) a few weeks ago. They are cheap (cheapest thing I have ever bought from JHP Cov), look surprisingly good and are black and red! This link shows them in yellow: http://www.busters-accessories.co.uk...tRef=PG724BKGY. The thing is, they have transformed the comfort from the stock grips. I used to get numb fingers from the vibes and these have eliminated that completely. There is another thread on how to fit them - I had to ask. Involves WD40 and hairspray.

I forgot to mention. Mine is a 600 (the new look forum has lost the bike type on the left there). They will fit almost any monster I believe.

I always had foam grips on my enduro bikes and most of my road bikes. There were great on the KTMs. LCs and everything else. Never noticed a huge difference between thin rubber 'normal' types other than less blisters and no numb fingers, might be the history of off road racing.. read the ground and ride it, take the hit and don't stop..
