Super easy just take you time and do not pinch the wires. I installed Avon grips on my 09 SG and love them.
Thanks, I appreciate that.

Don't forget to squeeze the brake lever and put some type of shim (cardboard) between to keep it open. Don't want to break your brake switch ...

A good trick for removal is to take a small air nozzle and use a compressor to work the grip off.This prevents using a razor knife and gouging your bars.

Make sure you do the throttle side first. It's position is set.

Then do the clutch side and match it to the pattern on the throttle side grip. I hope this makes sense.
You will most likely glue the clutch side grip, so do it last.
