Yep, put them on my buzzy little KZ, and they work very well.

We just ordered these. They are exactly what we were looking for because we didn't want to cut the original grips.

Thanks

I may have to give them a try. Don't see any grip sets that I really like and after going to the lower Daytona bars I was unable to reinstall the OE internal bar weights and use the bar end mirrors.
On the run last Saturday the only slight down side I found was a little buzzing in my hands after an hour or so.I don't know if I'm willing to go back to stalk style mirrors to be able to use the factory vibration weights.

rockster5-

Was just wondering what you think of your new Original Grip Buddies?

Inquiring minds want to know.

Best,

Buffalorider-

I don't think you'd be dissatisfied with my OGB SS's if you gave them a shot. Let me know if I can help.

Best,

that grip stuff is good, the grip was too narrow before. i can wrap the throttle in an almost normal fashion now. the fingers were sticking too much towards the wrist before. the increased circumference of the throttle increases the intervals of the rolling action of the throttle much better than the stock. nice find meowguy. thanks.
