Default Hand grips

Don’t those come on sleeves? Its simply separating you control housings and swapping the grips sleeves and all.

They should just slide off after you loosen..the switch housings and throttle cables...the new ones slide on and are held on by the switch housings.

the left one is glued. kury gives you the gle with the new grips. they also give you pretty good directions.the glue sets up very fast. i didnt glue mine yet because im going to do internal wirinr and will need to remove thwm.on the right side yoy will need to squeese the brake lever and put a spacer behind it to hold it out. a 1/8 inch thick piece of cardboard works well. this is so you dont damage the brake light switch. also be careful not to lose the little brass furrows that connect the cables to the grip. you might want to lay a towel on the floor in case you drop one. actually, its a pretty stright forward job. if you have a manual, look at it before you start. same for the dirictions. that was my first mod and yoy will love those grips.

As stated before the glue sets up REAL fast. Once you startputting on the left grip do not stop until it is in place and be quick about it. I did and the griop froze in place... about 1.5 inches away from wehre it should have been.[:@]

Two sided tape with a little solvent works great. Can also get it off by applying heat.

I had Kury ISO's and there is a middle plastic piece that is under the rubber part...it is glued to that..Riding in NC I thought I broke a throttle cable..it was the glue coming undone from the plastic...took the chrome and rubber off and was able to use the the inner plastic piece for throttle....I kept regluing it but, it kept coming lose...so I bought some HD grips. One thing with the ISO's gotta have gloves on fingerless or full...the seat of your hand will make the chrome bubble and flake
