Anyone have the new X2 Grips? They look nice on the web page but I've not seen them... the description says:

The uniquely styled X2 grips look like a fighter pilot's flight stick. Highly contrasting "ribs" of chrome and rubber give this small diameter grip a futuristic look.

I'm wondering if the grip is really small. I'm not sure a smaller grip will look good on a V-ROD...

My brother put the X2 on his bike and I liked them a lot. I am actually getting the dragbars and will be putting the X2 on mine. They do not feel or look small. If they are it is not a big difference from other grips.

Thanks Azslightdraw,
It's really hard to tell how they will look on the bike. I added drag bars this winter and just placed an order for the X2 grips. I will post pictures once I get them mounted. Good to hear they aren't small. They look great in the pictures and having something different is always a good thing. They look like they've got a squared edge on them. Should prove to be nice for cruising. If you have any pictures, please post them. I don't expect to get mine till next week (can't wait). I'm sure others on the list would like to see them mounted.
Thx,
Greg

Thanks

Are they round like the stock grips hard to tell from the pics. Anyone leave them out in the sun do they heat up. Live in texas :spank:

No not round, I will post close up pictures but they have two square edges, the rest is mostly round. I think heat may be a problem. the way they mount, you will end up with a fare amount of chrome against a few fingers. Not a problem with light gloves but if left out in the sun they could be hot to the touch for a second or two with no protection.
