Excellent write up, and the pics were just what I needed to see before I changed mine.
The grips you put on were what I grafted on to my old VFR, and then were stock later on a previous GS. My 07 GSA stock grips suck, too small for my hands, this looks like just the ticket.

I got them at DetBMW,they are not an item they stock. I ordered right before they sent in their weekly(?) order and got them the next day. You going to Stockbridge this year?
