Grips - Which ones?

[VooDooBanshee]

Pretty simple question I guess, but which grips do you prefer on the banshee? I still have the stock handle bars too..

 

If I wanted to replace the handle bars as well, which are the best for trail riding/woods riding? I want to keep the key switch, any options?

 

Thx-

I run Pro Taper bars and grips, they have been really nice. IMHO, when it comes to grips you get what you pay for. So spend a little more and they will last you longer.

 

I have the flat black "atv mid bend" bars

I've been running the odi grips as well and really like them. They are soft, big around and grip good. Plus they lock in place so you don't have to worry about them coming off.

Awesome, thanks guys!

I'm running renthal bars with scott grips. These things are personal preference only and I'm sure you'll get a shit ton of different opinions on this, But just get what is comfy to you thats what matters most. Some people run honda bend bars which I believe mine are some run a yamaha bend and some people run other things. From what I've heard from a lot of people Fast Flex bars are the shit they are just very pricey.

renthal kevlar grips are nice. i think like $22 a set but they dont wear for shit. otherwise, get some scotts or odi...the clamp on feature is nice, and from what ive heard prevent them from sliding around too. OURY grips are nice as well. and very soft

I run OURY right now. Their good, big, very cushy. I will be trying the Spider grips next though.

x2 on the spyders. A buddy of mine has them on his z and I LOVE them there very comfy. He has the older style mind you, the only difference I see between the two are the shapes of the cousions on the grips. Pro taper pillow tops are also very nice.

Excellent, thanks for the responses. Now, how does everyone tackle the key switch mount on aftermarket bars? I know I can just get rid of it, but what are the best bars to keep it in place - like stock?

 

Thanks-

i run pro taper bars and their pillow top grips. you will have to remove the key switch, you can buy a hidden key switch plate that mounts to the gas tank mounts for like $20 from a sight sponser. i got mine from jds custom. it cleans up the handle bar area very nicely and quick and easy to do.
