Installing new grips

[djt77]

Anyone know how easy it is to install new grips?

[MADOGA]

how easy?
Very.

[Nero Diablo]

Although to make it super easy ideally you need access to a compressor and a dust off gun.

[Luke]

agree with Nero...

where in perth are you, someone with the compressor and gun may live close to you...

hot soapy water and a metal kebab skewer works well enough.

A splash of metho lubes the grip to put it on, then evaporates completely to stick it there. Make sure the bar & throttle tube are totally clean & dry first.

compresor is the best. never get twists in ur grips either.

[qm848]

yeh - compressor is the way. did mine last month and took about 1 minute each side - the compressor just blows them onto the handle - simple. where u?

[drifter]

apparently a dash of petrol is also good as it evaporates leaving the grips on nice and tight.

Hairspray works exceedingly well also

Contact adhesive and wire them on, you will have to use a knife to get them off they will never come loose.

Renthal gripstick (probably just relabeled contact adhesive).

Make sure not to move them while they're drying though, or they won't be well stuck.
