I didn't have to cut the grips on my '06, yours should the same. If they stick to the bars, a shot of air from a compressor under the grip and it should come right off.
Best to throw down an old piece of carpet or something before you start, you are bound to drop one of those brass throttle cable ferrules, and they like to roll away and disappear.

Just cut it and throw it. For me it didnt worth the time and energy to keep it. What are going to do with it anyways.
Just remember to cover the mirrors( for 48) so if the glue drips it doesnt make a mess. And, dont hesitate after applying the glu on the left side, just slide it right away to the end and get it over with.

Another thing some of us do,is squeeze the brake lever together and wedge a piece of cardboard between the lever and the perch to hold the brake lever on,this way you won't brake the little switch for the brake light.
