Default Need your advice on grips

I am looking for new grips for my bike....right now I have the ISO ones with the pointy ends installed....the problem is the ISO grips are kind of bulky for my hands and I want to change them for something thinner.....but I dont want to loose the style. I want them pointy at the ends still.

So show me the grips you have and tell me if they are comfortable for your hands....especially if any of you out there have the XOPRO ones.....I was looking at the silver ones with flames and have pointy ends..the guy told me they measured 5 1/2 grip wise...but in the center is 4 1/2 inches....so, I was thinking about those...but not 100% sure.

So I would appreciate your advice!

Have you tried the throttle boss with your ISO grips? I have small hands and the grips alone would be a little fat for comfort. But the throttle boss to rest the palm on makes them very comfortable for me.

There are a lot of grip makers out there. Try looking at PhatPerformanceparts.com, scootworks.com, BaronCustom.com, etc.
Some really cool ones too.
