So, I have went through two sets of Kuryakyn grips. Both didn’t have the cable anchor point for the throttle. Is there something I’m missing?

+1 on the Avons....
Noticed sometimes changing grips, makes it harder to hold onto handlebars....never, ever had a problem with Avon, either from fit or quality....

Back a few bikes ago I purchased a set of Avon grips which had the Heat Demon warmers in them. I have transferred them between 3 Voyagers and have probably 75,000 miles or so on them and they keep going. I would recommend them to anyone.

Kuryakn iso grips by far the most comfortable and durable if you want to diversify a little bit do like I did and purchase either the stiletto or bullets ends. Mine have stilettos.

That is a LOT of votes for the AVON grips. They may get the nod if another set of grips becomes needed...
Thanks for sharing!

Ride safe,
Smokier
