Easiest way i have found to fit Heated Grips, Grip Puppies or just new motorcycle grips. Be careful not to pierce the inside of the grips with the tool you use.
I've watched a number of these now and everyone gets it wrong. Just use isopropyl alcohol on the existing grip and the inside of the puppy. Slides right on and after it dries grabs perfectly. This method doesn't leave soap residue that if it gets wet again may cause the puppy to slip. Leave the screw drivers for screws.
Watched a few videos on how to install these, and your suggestion about soaking the grips in warm water was invaluable...I skipped the screwdriver part and used a microfiber cloth to twist them on instead--worked great. You, my friend, get a sub for the soaking suggestion--thank you!
Definitely works with soapy water & a long screwdriver . Only trouble I had was on one side the Oxford grips were pretty well perished & as I worked the screwdriver it rolled the old mass of rubber grip into several lumps and I could see the wiring when I pulled the new grip back . I assembled the barkbusters & trimmed the lumps smooth . Started the bike switched on the Oxford heating and it works . Champion, thank you .
I had a set of these on one of my ST1300s and loved them. The larger grips were easier on the hands. They did muffle some of the heat when I used them but there was enough range in the grip warmer that it wasn't much trouble to turn them up one more notch. After five years, when I sold the bike, they were just like new. Now I've got a pair for my Goldwing to install and revisiting the installation process.
Think I'll try a set myself. I get a bit of tingle after riding a while but my bar ends were swapped out by the previous owner for a trick pair of gold ones. Going back to standard bar ends might help with a bit of that too. Still like the thought of a padded grip though.
Yes I like them simply because they are a fatter grip. On long rides the thinner standard grips tend to make my hands ache, especially on the throttle side. Thanks for commenting Rob

I'm glad that worked out well for you and thankyou for the sub.
This is the easiest best way , I use isopropyl alcohol instead of soapy water , works even better
Thank you
Thankyou Wayne.
I used hand sanitizer! So easy!

Just picked up a set of these grips.. Thanks for the video so I can prep..
Great tip! If you have an air compressor and a nozzle use this in conjunction with your method and install is a breeze 👍🏼
Great tip, thanks, installed mine in minutes.
Been putting off fitting the grips for a while but thanks to this method both grips fitted in less than 5m! Cheers for that, very easy!
Brilliant, I'm glad it worked out for you.

Cheers, just about to fit mine to my Tracer 9 GT
Grip Puppies are a great product used them for years, silly name
Worked a treat thanks.
Thankyou Peter.
This product works for me installed them today by applying small amount of Vaseline in the hole went in easily
People want something that will wash off and/or evaporate though .

Awesome! Thanks.
Thankyou
Forget all that just use a bit of peer soap and they will slip right on Dunn deal. Good day
That's awkward and slow method. Use the plastic bag with little amount of soap. On in 20 seconds
Talc /baby powder and thay will fall on 😎
