I got new grips for my TRAIN, is there anything unusual about the throttle side I need to beaware of before taking it appart??? Thanks

When taking off the old one, do it slowly so you don't lose the small brass fittings. They are a pain to find on the floor (i found this out first hand) the rest is pretty easy. Use the manual and you will have no problem at all.
Good luck!

 

The small brass fittings are evil! They hit the floor, bounce once and are gone. I keep a half dozen of 'em in my box at work just because I know I'll lose one at some point. Of course, since I started stocking extras I haven't lost one.... Aside from the evil, non-magnetic, sneaky brass fittings it is fairly easy and straight forward.

 

just look at the ones you take off and put the new ones on the same way. and those little brass fittings can get away from you, but the whole project should take about 15 minutes (probably should use a litte adhesive on the left grip) ---Cap

 

Cut the old ones off if you have to, if they're the stock ones they're on there pretty good and it doesn't make sense to fight them if they're not coming easily - and they mostly don't.

 

I put a blanket under my bike when I changed mine out so the brass fittings wouldn't roll away if (and when) I dropped them.

 

Everything is obvious in there. What isn't is if you forget to put the shim in the brake lever before starting the job. You will most likelybreak the end of the brake light switch off and then you will be pissed. Step one, shim.
