Is everyone sporting the standard handle or the grande? has anyone dared to put an aftermarket on it?

I started wet shaving 5 or 6 months ago and the R89 was my first razor. I love the razor and after trying many blades in it I eventually settled on Gillette Silver Blues as the best blade in that razor for me. Several weeks ago I got an R41 and tonight was my first shave with a feather blade in it. It was probably my smoothest shave to date. I still love the R89 and will still use it but the R41 will be my primary razor. It is awesome.
I just shaved with mine today, the personna I put in wasn't the right choice. I'm a big fan of BICS =D, I'll likely try the astra and wilkies this week
I've had a 2011 for a couple months and it is a love/hate relationship. I have gotten the absolute best shaves ever with it (12 hours later, in smoother than 2 minutes after a shave with anything else. When it's bad, it's real bad. Crime scene bad. But I keep trying
The R41 is very rough and unrefined. You have to tread on eggshells the whole time the blade is on your face.
