More comfortable hand grips.

#1 Unread post by William »

My 2015 Kawasaki ZX-14R Ninja is fairly comfortable, considering it's my first supersport. However, I tend to get tingling and achy hands after riding a while due to the weight my hands are supporting. Does anyone have any experience with better hand grips? Preferably having a larger outside diameter and softer rubber?

Thanks, William.

Cheap and cheerful solution; foam grips like grab on grips, grip puppies, etc. About US$10-15. It's usually my first farkle when I buy a bike.
