Two thumbs up for the Grip Puppies. Finally put a pair on about a week ago. The problem I've had is most of the gloves I've tried seem to slip and slide a little on the firm, smooth grips on the NT (and most sport bikes for that matter). This causes me to have to keep a pretty tight grip on the throttle just to counteract the force of the return spring and keep the throttle from slipping in my hand. I also have pretty large hands and most sport grips seem too small for me. The result, combined with the vibration from the bars, is a numb, tingly right hand. Cruising down the highway at a constant speed wasn't a problem, as I engage the go cruise and relax my hand. In twisty, mountainous areas, where I have to constantly manipulate the throttle, my hand would often get quite tingly. Now, with the grip puppies installed, the combination of the larger diameter (more leverage) and grippy surface means I don't have to apply nearly as much force with my hand to keep the throttle open, and no numbness. Of course, the cushioning effect of the foam also insulates my hand from vibration transmitted through the bars which also helps. I love simple, inexpensive things that work.
