And thank you for the rubbing alcohol tip. If they don't move, it's less messy than with extra-hold hair spray (liquid, not aerosol).
Never had them move or twist, the only way to get them off that I know of is to split them open. But with rubbing alcohol there is no sticky residue on the OEM grip..
I've been using these for a while now... much better than Grip Puppies... easy on/off too!

I have seen the beemer buddies before, my problem is where to put the seam that is will not bother me.
The foam ones are uniform all the way around, a little cushioning too. Never have had them get slippery in the rain, closed cell so will not absorb water.
I like my grips a little fatter than OEM anyway.
