I replaced the grips on the uly yesterday. The throttle side is fine, but the left side keeps sliding off. I used the hairspray trick for both. Also, throttle side is thicker (due to the plastic sleeve), is there a trick the thicken the left side to match?

grip glue, did you have to cut the stockers off or did they just come off?

Did you drill 7 holes in you ECM? Did you pour 2 bottles of NOS energy drink into your tank? If not, I think we can let the one slide : )

Happy, he only changed the rubber grip part, not the whole control assembly.
