Hand Grips or Anti Vibe Risers

[GunMetalTenere]

Hello all, I’m looking at limiting the vibration I get from my handlebars. I’m currently running Michelin Anakee Adventure tires (not too knobby) and the stock handlebars.

Would it be better to run the Rox Risers with the anti vibe or change up the grips

Any thoughts?

I have been using Grip Buddies on my S10 for about 4 years now and they work real well
even when using the OEM Yammy grip warmers (on the high setting). They definitely quell
vibrations in the hand grips but then again the vibes were never really that bad on my '13 S10.
I am also running Mich AAs.
FWIW the Grip Buddies install is a lot easier (to put on and take off) than the Grip Puppies and
I also prefer the neoprene material used for the GBs rather than the foam material used for the GPs.

+1 on grip puppies or ::::ahem:::: Amazon knock offs. Would definitely start off cheap then move up. Fixed my hand numbing issues 100%.

I came from Harleys, so I don't really think the vibrations are bad on my '13. Coming from Harley, I did feel the stock grips on the Tenere are too small in diameter. That did seem to transfer the vibration to my fingers more (rather than the palm) and I believe that is the reason for the fatigue in my throttle hand.
I ended up putting Re-Grip (available at any hardware store) over my stock grips and the larger diameter solved my fatigue issues. They transfer heat from my factory grips fine on any setting and they are incredibly easy to install.
Just another option to consider.

I have used the "Re-Grip" ones in the past.
They work really well, and are fairly easy to install.
They transfer the heat from the heated-grips just fine, but after they had been on the bike for awhile they started to deteriorate on the surface of them.
It would leave a black stain on my gloves, and anything I touched with my gloves (face, door-handles, arm, etc......) would have black marks on it.

I never had vibration issues with the S10, just wanted to make the grips slightly larger for my big "Bear-Paws"
I may try those Grip-Buddies.........

I use them for large hands as well. Grip puppies seem to hold up better than other brands.

Oh wow, that's interesting! I haven't had that yet but I'll keep an eye out for that. I probably have less than 4k miles on them so maybe it's just a matter of time.
Thanks for sharing!
