Best grips?

[Paulk1]

currently have lizard skins. Looks for something softer and thicker. Yea yea I know...

ODI lock on ruffians are great.

Not very soft but they work better than anything I've ever used.

My favorite are the odi rogues. I have another kind, a nice set that came with my mountain bkke that support the back of your hand but i havent tried them on the jet ski yet.

Oury offroad grips, the kind with the big square blocks. SO comfy, and the set on my 650sx have been on for 7yrs now and still look new.

Thanks! those are literally the three I've been debating between, before I even posted.

Ive pretty much had all the ODI grips and my current set and my favorite, ODI Cross Trainers are my hands down favorites.

What did you not like about the other ODI grips?

What did you not like about the other ODI grips?

Didnt like the Rogues because they seem to bulky for me. Dont like the ruffians or troy lees because they wear down way too quick and then get sticky and gross. Dont like the ODI vans because they were too hard.

Why, do they come with tassels?

I like the ruffians the best so far. Try some out.

ODD Extreme or the YETI's

ODI's have been great, Troy Lee's are horrible, nasty sticky after a few weeks.

 

[CRJ]

Odi ruffins are my top pick

 

[Freakrider]

Odi ruffians are perfect.

I've only used odi ruffians and vans. Either way with gloves on, I don't notice a difference. I never ride without gloves unless I'm tuning or just casually cruising. But for casual cruising I really really liked the ruffians. Gloves wear through them extremely fast however.

Ruffians are too skinny for guys with big hands, IMO. Rogues or Xtremes for me.

The odi vans grips that are gum sole color were my fav. The black ones take a lil while to wear in.

Rogue are nice. Soft thick and grip well with and without gloves. I use those on my ATV's.

Ruffian I wore through to the plastic too quick. Had a few sets of those. They get sticky if you leave them in the sun. I park my chit (dry) in the garage at night.

The Troy lee odi are junk.

Also had a pair of the odi Xtreme I think they were called. Those aren't too bad.

I've been using the half flange design now where the flange protects my thumb from my trim lever. I kept cutting up my thumb.

Those outer clamp rings are sharp when not rotated in the correct position also. Cutting up gloves and hands gets annoying.

I had a full speed yard sale recently where the only thing left in my hands was my left grip. Now I tighten the chit outta those lock ends where they're junk when I take them off.

The plastic sleeve is real annoying to get over the knurling on some bars(pro taper) I think my old RRP bars had knurling on there too.

What everyone is saying about ODI Ruffian's is true in my experience. Even though they get sticky and they wear out quickly, they're still usable. I like the ODI Rogues better because they have a larger diameter, squishy feel, and deep groves that keep water off the contact treads. If you have smaller hands, the Ruffian's might feel like a better fit.
