I'm guessing they would be less effective heaters as they are thicker grips.
Are they available from that place or is it just a nostalgic posting?

Re: Getting a grip
If you are talking about the "fat" grips I posted, yes, they are available, with FREE SHIPPING to Australia!

I know, the price makes it seem "nostalgic", doesn't it?
But I am pretty sure I did not buy mine from there. I searched my emails and could not find any chatter on them, so who knows where I got them. I have not checked my Favorites folders, though.

And the favorites folder, it was!
These are a few dollars more, and I can't say on the shipping.

Probably inner wall / spongy foam / outer wall.
I can't see that letting the heat get to your hands very well, and I think ZM wants warmth for his pinkies.
He's getting old and can't take even British Columbia cold.
I've spent most of my money on women, motorcycles, and beer.
The rest of it I just wasted.

Re: Getting a grip
That's the ticket!...but with my "S" there is not much room between the tank and my thumb. Thicker grips would reduce the clearance even more.

You need extra hold. I thought you'd be right up on this stuff.Zombie Master wrote: ↑Sat Jul 15, 2017 12:17 am How do you apply the hair spray. I tried it and it didn't work.
Stuff they used in the sixties would be good.
Did you have to go and buy the hairspray?

Re: Getting a grip
Zombie mistress had some, but it didn't work. I tried some marine sealant, it seems to be holding. Thanx! ........mate.ME 109 wrote: ↑Wed Jul 19, 2017 6:37 amYou need extra hold.
