Grip Puppies on dirt bike?

I have had these grips on a couple of bikes for killing vibes and really do rate them highly. (thumbs)
BUT, their one bugbear for me, is that they are a bit slippy if your gloves are wet or muddy when trail riding. Has anyone found a good alternative for a slipover grip?

Hi,
Try the Progrip Rally Grips, they are foam grips that really help with vibration on my off road bikes.
Cheers

I have fitted the Grip Puppies on the Dakar and find them really good, not experienced the problems you say Yet!!
When wet, I turn on the heated grips, and they soon dry.
But they really stop the vibration and dead finger really well.
I really like them. (thumbs)

I like them too Will, perfect for damping out those "single vibes"! (thumbs) Not got heated grips on the smaller Honda, so I'll see if they work on the tiddler first and then try the Honda.
