Think Jammy in the GM had a set till it started raining and they spent the whole time sodden and squelchy.

No, but the page title made me laugh.

Yah I have a pair(free from work as I tested them) I think they do work at reducing vibrations, but they make the grip quite thick which you need to get used to.

Yep, got a pair on my K2 as the vibration through the bars was making my fingers go numb
They're bloody expensive for a couple of lengths of pipe insulation, but they did help with the tingly fingers. A word of warning though - I snagged the left hand side one when putting the bike in my back garden and they split REALLY easily, now fixed with some self-amalgamating tape.
