I just ordered the OURY Road grips for $13 on amazon... I'll let everyone know how they work out. Thanks!

I dont know why. 750 grips are very small in diameter and I am wondering if larger diameter grips would help? I am getting old and all sorts of stuff starts locking up on me but I am wondering if larger grips could help? I have a throttle rocker which helps but it does not help enough. Would larger grips help? I realize this is A WIild card type question but any replies appreciated.

I think so! My VTX had large diameter leather grips and they NEVER hurt me. 200 mile rides and my butt and back were hurtin' but my hands were good. I think the CB1100 is harder on the hands since I'm resting my weight on the handle bars vs. just sitting and holding the bars. I have been shifting forward on the seat and sitting up more. That seems to help a lot, but when I'm slabbing it into a headwind at 70mph, I have to lean forward... Smile Windscreen is supposed to be here Tuesday. Thumbs Up
