I've noticed Kenny and the majority of Factory Honda have been running these white grips for a little while now. They look super comfy. Does anyone know what they are? I don't see them on Renthal's website. Are they not available to the public?
Renthal soft.
they’re not white, just a very light grey.
Any chance they are soft compound but the color is lighter in color because of the pictures being outside?
Buy 3/4 pairs at a time- they’re very soft, almost single use.

Phoenix Handlebars has some very similar to those. I’ve been rocking them for a while and they are soft. I get about 2-3 off road races then they are toast.
They look a bit different. Who knows. I ride the soft Renthals at least 40hours. Maybe i just have a light grip.
Gotta love someone downvoting a post that's just pure fact, never change Vital lol
Like other have said, they are great but if you are even slightly rough on grips, buy a few pairs at a time. Almost single-use for me.
I found that the 04 Honda grips stay tacky & last forever. My pinky& next finger is numb from nerve surgery. I hv no problems hanging on.
As far as the compound goes I think you're correct. But they're definitely white. Must be a special thing for the race teams
Stock Honda grips are horrible. First thing I do when I get a new bike is rip those off. You're crazy Pro.
They’re a works grip - they’re not the same as the softest Renthal compound! It’s come up a couple times in Sextons bike checks.
agree. First thing I did on mine was new grips.
He is wrong, they are white
Thank you! Bummer they don't offer that color.
ODI does

Fair enough 🍻
Also, now I want them
I like them the best the rest seem to hv something besides rubber in there grips. Honda is all rubber when in the sun . They get real tacky. 2 fingers hv little feel of grip and index fingers Lives on the clutch lever. Zero arm pump left hand. Rt arm pumps up 2nd lap but that’s from a shoulder injury & tendinitis.
Full waffle softs! Tomac and I both run them

I'm a Renthal guy through and through but I am pretty sold on Pro Taper pillow tops
They're either Renthals or These Pro-Tapers... (I'm using these personally and they're amazing)
Kawi vulcanizes them to the handlebar and throttle tube. I had to use a wire wheel to get all the little bits of rubber off 😳
wtf why lol
Half waffle BRO....been my favorite grip since BBR made money 🤣
Abrigo approved
Bro your sticky is left on the soft of why the glue even works right cause there's nothing left of holding the wire thats tied twice cause the crimp got folded under but not over the groove. I realy do enjoy pillow talk BRO....
Protaper 1/3 waffle , soft.
These are very good grips. I wish the OD was slightly smaller though. I rotate between these and odi sx2. I like grips that show wear relatively quick, it tells me they are soft and gripping good
I've herd the factory teams run extra soft that isn't available to public. They only last 1 day and they are lighter colour then soft.
Interesting.
Where did you ‘hear’ this?
