Kind of look like Emig ripoffs.

My friend has them on his 19 KX450. I didn't notice them at all the last time I rode it, which I suppose is a good thing.
I just picked up some Emig V2 Pro's and when it stops raining we'll compare them back to back.

I saw those new Emig grips and they look great. I'm going to order a pair. And with all the snow in Wisconsin, hopefully try them out before June.

I had them on my ktm. They felt slimmer and softer than the soft odi lock ons.

Bought them for my 2015 yz250f, but the throttle cam has a smaller diameter than stock, which is useless for me.

I have the Pro Taper's on my YZ125. They have a better feel (not so stiff) compared to ODI Emig V2 grips, more like a normal grip. I'll probably go back to regular Pro Taper 1/2 waffles once they wear out just because I prefer a softer compound.

I have these on my 300. They are great grips and are thinner than ODIs. On the top of the left side grip there isn't a complete tube to allow them to be thinner. I have probably 15ish hours on them, and will buy them again. I prefer them over the ODIs.
