Kuryakyn or Avon grips?

On my old bike I had Kuryakyn ISO grips with bar end weights and a throttle boss (Avon’s throttle assist). I used to get the hand numbness but after installing the ISO’s that was completely eliminated. I had never heard of Avon grips until now and checking out their website I do like the look of the tan rubber. I have a black 60 with tan seats. Anyhow, Avon has a couple options being the air gel and memory foam grips and I’m not sure which is better. I’d assume the air cushion would be the closest to the ISO grip on feel. From researching here on the forums it doesn’t seem that Kuryakyn makes ISO grips for the Scout.

Definitely go with the Avon grips. I’ve had their air gel grips on the last four Harleys I’ve owned. Great quality, good price, and they’re made in USA. I never buy Kuryakyn Chinese junk, JMO.

I got the Avons and they are so much better than the stock grips. The stock ones felt too hard. I have small hands and the Avons are perfectly sized. My only complaint is that the throttle side grip has a little play, but when I'm riding, I don't notice it.
