Depends...is the bike for you? If so, put whatever on it that makes you happy. If you intend to sell the bike on at some point though, I'd keep the GripShift system in a shoebox somewhere because to the next guy, originality usually commands a pretty premium over "upgrades".

well JMC used to wear Etto helmets and they are uncool according to "our" wall!
The 1997 Altitude Team Only was sold with Gripshift, so does that make Rocky a sad brand?
Cheap Gripshift was sad though. There's nothing cool about gears that won't shift and rip your skin off/gloves to pieces trying to make them. It just took a while for it to sink in that the brand spanking new emperor really had no clothes, that's all. I think the top level Gripshift always did work though, didn't it?
Prefer rapidfire myself, but Gripshift that works isn't sad.

Agree. Three bikes in my quiver with twisties and to me they make the most sense...followed closely by thumbshifters. Triggers leave me clammy, so you can put those on any wall you wish!
