I have big hands and I switched to those grips with the extended tab on them for putting the heel of your hand when cruising.
problem is they keep creeping around the throttle assembly so i have to keep bending them back into position.
I even tried grip cement.
No good.

Whats the desirable grip for guys with big hands?
It's a /7

Grips for big hands

No
That won't help.
I don't have the original grips and the little speed tab isn't what I reall want.

ANYONE HAVE A PAIR OF STOCK /7 GRIPS I CAN GET CHEAP?

A guy I know told me he solved his big hands problem by finding an O-Ring that is slightly smaller than the grip and he added as many O-Rings as it took to fill the entire grip. This effectively increased the diameter of the grip and since he used a soft rubber O-Ring, there was less tendency for his glove to slip.
 
Grip Puppies

Check out "Grip Puppies". They are cheap, and they worked for me (6'6") on the K13GT with the pencil-thin grips.
Also, consider Throttlemeister to give your right hand a break.
