Hello all, I'd like to get some input on what folks are using for grips? My recently acquired NT has alot of wear to the grips, to the point of being pretty tacky and uncomfortable on the top sides. What are some of the preferred replacements?

I use 719 Progrips on all my bikes. They are the right diameter for my hands, and grippy enough that you only need a light grip on the throttle.
If you plan to ride in colder weather this might be a good time to add heated grips to the bike. I have the Honda ones on mine (excellent but expensive) and added the RG Racing heated grips to the Triumph (excellent and cheap!)

Hmmm..... I'm still running the original factory grips on the 2010 and they are in pretty good shape yet. I must be lucky.
I've still got my original Honda heated grips.

Until I traded in my NT last year it still had the heated grips and I don't even remember them showing any wear.
I use grip puppies. They are cheap and easy to install. I do not have heated grips. I suspect the grip puppies would reduce the heat.
I have had these or The Kimpex branded ones. I currently have them on 4 bikes and they work well. The nice thing about these is that you can use any grips you prefer.
