The PO of my bike had some fat gel ProGrips installed. Instead of making it easier on my hands, I found them hard to grip and thus my hands got sore. Got some slimmer, kraton Driven grips that came free with my Pazzo levers. Smaller diameter, still have some cush with the Kraton material, grippy diamonds.

I was having the same problem and went this route:

Product is called Grip Puppies (for some unknown gay reason) on the menu to the left side.
I ordered the small and they install over the stock grips.
I've had mine on since 2005 and no deterioration. They helped alot with increasing the grip diameter which was a major key for me. I recommended them for someone else once and they said they felt like it took away too much feedback. Cheap enough to try though. I like them.

Funny thing is most riders have no idea as the dealers never stock Oury grips.
I like the road grip on my Street ride, love the big blocks and the grip is super soft. Works well with leather gloves.
The original grip is what i use on my dirt bike and my SuperMoto

I have foam grips on mine, not sure the brand, but when I first started riding I got numb hands as well. I corrected it with proper riding style. Im 6ft with abnormally long monkey arms though...lol
