The grip puppies are good I like the fatter softer bars, I've bought another set for my cb500x just so both bikes feel the same.
I've bought another set of bar risers 30mm universal fit and after some fiddling about they now fit. The holes were slotted which helped but the bars didn't grip and would rotate so had to file some off the risers which cured that problem also the two forward bolts were to long so had to be shortened.
Not been a ride yet but they look good and should make a difference.
... and some good news is it seems the genuine brand Grip Puppies appear to last. That is, they don't appear to rot and fall apart even after all day in the sun and soaking in doses of rain. I've had mine for several years (4 to 5) and relocated across multiple bikes. I have not replaced them yet and they feel and look like "Day 1" new.
