Cleaning the ISO Grips

Just wondering what's the best way to clean the Kuryakyn ISO grips? Mine look clean but if you ride for a bit without gloves, my hands get black. I'm sure its just built up hand sweat combined with road grime.

You could try a solution of water with alcohol and use a Q Tip for hard to get to places.

They all do that, as the rubber grip wears.

Kury says to repeatedly wet the grips with window cleaner until they quite bleeding the black off on to your hands.

Cleaning the ISO Grips

I use Aerospace 303 on all the rubber stuff like that including the floorboard pads and my Mustang seat.It is a water based UV protector that gives a little shine without being slippery.You can get it at RV and boat shops.

I found that nothing I did ever stopped the black from coming off, I think its just part of the rubber coumpounds makeup.
I don't like riding without gloves on, so the black hands is rarely a problem for me.

Same here. I just were fingerless gloves in the summer.
