    Hi all,<?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:eek:ffice:eek:ffice" /><o:p></o:p>
    <o:p></o:p>
    I have an 1150 Adventure with heated grips and bar risers. I spend about 70% off road and 30% on road and there is about 30k on the bike. It’s time to replace the grips and I am looking for something a little more ‘off road’ – any suggestions? <o:p></o:p>
    <o:p> </o:p>
    I would also like to replace the bars at the same time. I am looking for something stronger and that would give more ‘rise’. Any suggestions? <o:p></o:p>
    <o:p></o:p>
    Thanks Kevin <o:p></o:p>

    Pro grips 714 are my choice (on 1100GS and DRZ). Bars are totally a fit thing- the ones on my GS fit me fine, so I'll stay with stock. On my DRZ, I feel a little bunched up when standing, so I'll get some risers eventually.
