Need some quick help, please. (Read 89 times)

TROX Full Member Offline More ideas than $$$ Posts: 118 Temple, TX Gender:	Need some quick help, please. 02/23/13 at 16:53:29 I am replacing my handlebars and I have removed my handlebar caps, but then the Manual just says to remove the grips, well that's nice, but they seem pretty secure. I don't want to break anything, but do I just need to muscle them off or is there something I am missing ? Thanks for any help.

Compressed air will pop them off in two seconds. Get into youtube and search for "remove grips" and there will be several videos demonstrating the technique. You'll have to wade through a lot of golf grip videos to get to a motorcycle grip video. Here is one:

Here's another video. It is demonstrated with a mountain bike, but the procedure is the same:

If you think there's good in everyone, you haven't met everyone.
