If you have large hands at all, you would probably want the bulge in the middle.

Regards to the grips fellas,
would it be possible to get a pair thrown in as well steve as the ones you had were very comfy and I will fix you up, a silly one but would they work with heated grips
But if the parcel gets to big and postage blows out in price then I will let it go....See what happens

I guess it depends on how your heated grips are wired in Grant? They come in different ways, and can be integral to the grips used.
No problem getting a 3rd pair if it goes ahead...if they are actually available.

The rubber grips just slip over the wiring pad which is stuck to the bars, more the thickness of the new rubber grips to transfer the heat thru??, I think the they will work cause they got bloody hot when I last had a grip off and were playing around with them.
Just let me know steve if they are available

Rob, they look like the British version, called Beston grips. They're plentiful enough, and I have bought one pair to see what they're like. I got mine from the UK however.
I'm still after the "made in usa" gt grips, so if you find them, I'd like to take you up on the offer to buy and post please. Grant and I would want 1 pair each.
Try a place called Van Leeuwen Distributing or

Neither of those places seems to offer the GTG.
I won't be ordering any until you guys give me the go-ahead. Just let me know.

I asked to have the power removed, they balked and suggested a separate profile w/o power. So that is what I did. Then I guess they thought I was serious, so they removed them.
