Give me some ideas for some new grips for the 450R. The stock ones pretty much suck and I thought you guys could steer me in the right direction.

I like Scott hurricane grips. A pair will usually last me a year with no blisters.

I love my spider grips that I just installed last week. I am still waiting for my next trip to the track to see how they are on blister prevention.

I didnt like my progrips much at all. They would never stay on the bars, even if I cleaned the bars good, and used good glue.

The ourys are awesome, I haven't gotten a blister since I've switched to them, but being fatter you will get arm pump easier. Im also a fan of renthal no waffles, but you will get blisters like a sumbich.

I had the Scott hurricane grips, and the Oury's. I'm the most impressed with the stock grips on yfz, that's what I'll be running from now on.

i perfer spiders.... oh yea and when putting them on just use hairspray it works like a charm instead of that grip glue stuff

the oury's are super soft I wouldn't reccomend any other grip I didn't get any blisters at my last two races from these grips they are great

I just got the new renthal dual compound half waffles and i love them already and I dont think they are going to give blisters since they are dual compound

Now im runnin Renthal medium grips. I love them when they get wore out some. To me the Oury grips are to big. Sometimes I cant get a real good grip on the bars when im ridding.

oury's are the best by far that i've ever rode with .other seem less grip, and give blisters, OURY's feel smooth and or better and more paded so u can hold on better and keep a better grip, and not as much slip grip=less blisters, hope i help, i'd really consider them

i just put a set of spider slt grips on my new flexxbars and went to the track on sunday. after a day of riding my hands were bleeding from all the f'in blisters i got. then again the entire track was like a washboard. thats probably the biggest cause of my blisters... so perhaps its not the grips.... im gonna keep on using them until i find out if its the grips or not.
