grips

Some time in the near future I'll be changing my stock grips out to something else. I've had Kuryakyn grips in the past and I'm not interested in them. With my current stock grips my hands sweat and I get black stuff on my hands after a long ride. The same thing use to happen with the Kury grips. I don't wear gloves and don't want to start. Looking for something that gives a little air flow under the hands. The stock grips are comfortable enough just not enough air. If you have changed your grips out to something to stop the sweaty hands what did you change to and did it work?

I use Avon grips on both my Vulcans and wouldn't use anything else. I love them and I rarely have to use my throttle lock because they're so good.

Don't need the throttle mod.

Looks like Avon is the favorite.
