Handle bar grips

pooker · 01-12-2009, 11:36 AM

Hello, can any one tell me what are the fattest grips you can buy.
I like the stock grips on my 1600 Nomad but I just wish they were fatter.
Thanks

Fattest grips I know of (and have) are SAC grips. Measure approx 2" in diameter.
Leather grips with foam. Very comfortable. If you have any vibration should eliminate it.
Can also add throttle lock if desired.

Kuryakyn ISO grips are fatter than the stock grips.

I read you rpost, skimming through it the first time and thought you were asking for the fastest grips!

I did hear though they put the fastest ones on the red machines

I think the Kuryakyn ISO grips are the fattest, but the Cobra grips feel the best. The rubber gives me the grip I want and they have more of a round shape than the Kuryakyn grips.

The stock grips were OK, but with my big hands, I felt like I was holding a pencil. I put the Kury ISO grips on. they are quiet a bit fatter than the stock grips, very comfortable, but the SAC grips (like Dkdixie has) seems a little fatter.

Hey you can put a SAC on you NAD!

Seriously though, I have Iso's on mine - I think I'm the only guy in the world that doesn't like them, but they are quite a bit larger.

Actually I'm going to take a gook look at the SAC grips - even though they are spendy they are cool and original.

That is what I had put on before taking delivery (negotiated discounts on a couple different parts and free installation). I love them. added the helmet locks on the ends and a throttle boss too.
