I very seldom wear gloves which causes me to wear the grips out quickly. The left grip has already been worn smooth on the back side at 14000 miles. The heated grips are expensive! I used grip puppies on my Wing but hate the thickness and the heat reduction they cause. I bought this and put it on a few days ago, love it so far. No heat reduction and looks great. I hope it lasts but it is inexpensive. https://rover.ebay.com/rover/0/0/0?mpre=https://www.ebay.com/ulk/itm/282707170369
Now that I am home and can use a keyboard , I'll finish this post. On the left grip I put 2" heat shrink tubing. It looks good and is pretty thick, I think it will last a while too. While the heat shrink looks good, the other looks better, however the other is rubber and does not breath as good as the heat shrink. I'm leaning towards the heat shrink.

I was wondering if anyone has installed any aftermarket exhaust on a 2018 eluder/venture. I have a blacked out 2018 Star Eluder, and installed the Tab aftermarket slip on exhaust. Sounds great, not to loud and the right amount of rumble. Just wondering if I should get a powercommander or some...
I have a factory Eluder medium windscreen on order (looking to reduce buffeting) but it's not available until at least mid-August. Alternatively, I found an aftermarket supplier that offers a number of height options, including a 21" which appeals to me for cold weather riding. However, the...
