    There’s more settings on advanced? The website above must have made an error when entering details.

    Which would u pick?

    Ive had the touring ones with 5 settings and they did the job. Got fairly hot and made it more comfortable riding in cold. Id go with them. The cost difference and "extra features" dont offer enough to spend more.

    Deffo get the sports set, the actual pattern on the grip is brilliant and will suit the bike you mentioned. I have had two sets on 2 different bikes and they are brilliant.

    We use the Premium grips on our work bikes, they're ideal.

    Nine settings are way over kill, mostly you'll use 2 or 3.

    Make sure you check the grip lengths before you buy, as they vary.
