ProGrip 717. Much more comfortable than stock IMO. Small red insets
match the bike if you have red (other combos available).

+1 on ProGrip. It's the first thing I swap out on my Ducati's, usually using ProGrip 699. Have also used Rentals on track bikes. Nothing flashy plain black.

I have been running the Driven gel grips on my last couple bikes and they are great. Very similar in look to the Renthal's, but you can get them in black and they have a little cushion to them. Make sure you get the "open ended" grips.

+1 on the 699. That's what I'm using. Put them on when I got my Kyle Racing throttle tube.

Actually, you don't need to buy open-ended grips. A few seconds with an X-Acto
#11 blade and any grip becomes "open-ended". Some guys trim 'em out _after_
they are mounted on the bars.
