I am wanting to change the grips on my 08 classic ultra. I am going with the Kury ISO grips and wonder how difficult it is or if there are any pointers you guys would share such as things to watch out for and the like. It is electronic throttle

 

They are real easy to put on. Just cut off the left factory grip. Use the glue or some better if you want. The throttle is not hard. Follow directions on the package. There will be a little slack in the fit on the throttle. I don't care for this but it don't seem to effect anything. Had them for about 6000 miles.

 

There is a nice install video on the Cruiser Customizing website.

 

Look up the replacement in the manual. The throttle side has a micr switch that you need to protect when replacing.

Also look at this video:

Slacken the 4 screws and push the break lever and all towards the crosstrees and tighten screws. This will put tension on throttle handle and remove the slack you refer to.

 

Left grip I just twisted pretty hard and it came loose, right grip was tbw so it just slid right off. I even reused my factory grips but plan tochange them when I find what I want.

 

I just got a flyer in mail from Kuryakyn and they have a new black power coated ISO grip looks pretty cool. I've had ISO's on all my Harley's.

I had the glue fail on my ISO grips after several months. Several others here have had the same problem (left grip). Instead of using the glue, wrap the left handlebar with electrical tape then twist the ISO grip on. It holds very tightly.

 

I heard that using golf club handle tape works well. Thanks guys

 

Left side should come off just by loosening the switch cap since there is a grove in the grip that slips under the cap, no glue, at least on mine.
