What are you using? Do you like them?
I'm trying to pick some out. The choice was between these http://denniskirk.com/jsp/product_catalog/Product.jsp?skuId=590463&store=Main&catId=115&productId=p590463&leafCatId=&mmyId= and the Renthal Kevlars. But now I want to try and get some opinions so I can widen my selection some more.
Any input is appreciated.

I recently tried the TAG grips and I must say that I really like them. I have yet to try the new pro taper pillow grips, but they look like they would be good.
i have been running the odi rogue lock on grips...nice set up right there

Thanks for the input guys. After taking a look at the pillow top grips the first poster mentioned I'm now leaning toward them.
Keep the suggestions coming though!

I only use OURY, the only ones that come with a flange on the inside on both grips for thumb throttle machines. Super soft, wear out kind of quick but they look and feel great.
EDIT: Hmm, noticed you're using safety wire Blaine, can you feel it at all?

I also use safety wire. When installed correctly you don't notice any difference even with bare hands.
whats the point of the wire?

Makes sure the grips stay put.
Not just any wire though, saftey wire, and you have to have saftey wire pliers to put it on. Dennis Kirk and Rockymountain should both have a kit including the pliers.

but yeah, for racing, wire wrapping is required because sum1 slipped off with his grip and got owned. It really doesnt matter what wire u use. I mean saftey wire and wire roller is the best because it makes the best roll but i use 18 gauge steel wire, start it by hand, put vice grips on the wires and twist then cut, file and hammer. But you can get the tool for $20 so it's really worth it to get it.
That would be his GPR steering stabilizers remote adjuster. I still say he should have got a precision...

I love my Oury Atv grips. Everybody that i ride with is switching to them.
Oury grips are great for dry conditions. But once you throw in mud/water into the mix, they become slicker than owl chit.
