That's what I run. The only problem I noticed is that they dont last that long. They wear out very quickly. They are still awesome though.

I have tried the 909 grips. Yes, they are comfortable but wear out quickly. After 4 rides (one of them was a 2 day ride) the ends started tearing. I replaced them with Renthal atv grips medium softness. I have run Renthals medium grips on my 300 ex now for a year and a half and they do not show any wear yet. I have had my grips on my 400 ex for almost a year now with lots of rough riding.

yeah well like i said i rode my neighbors 400 with the 909 grips and i liked them. but he did say that they wore out quick. i have oury right now and i like them, but i don't like that they are so fat. i want something a little smaller so that it doesn't feel like i'm not controling the quad.

no the handlebar plastic isn't that hard to put on. you just have to take your stock off and then take out 2 screws to mount it. its very simple.

Oury grips! Theyre soft, and absorb some shock and vibration!

i use smith gel grips... and i switched from scott hurricane to them and WOW is all i can say... no more blisters but i miss the full waffle grip... i will probably get renthal full waffle next time thats what i used on my cr80 for years and they were by far the best grip i have used...

I like any of the gel grips.They may wear a lil faster but they feel so much better and dont wear your hands out .
