  • Rick puts some RSI handlebar grips on his Arctic Cat snowmobile. The Cat grips have about 4000 miles on them and it was time to finally change them. Ricko suggests staying with black handlebar grips on your snowmobile because the lighter the color, the dirtier they get.

    Thanks!! I came here just trying to find what grips to use. Now I learned how to change them easier

    I knew about the air trick, but those definitely look great. Like the lacquer thinner idea too.

    Helpful. I feel you pain with a motor sitting on the bench. Just got mine back together tonight.

    Awesome video! I have a 1999 SkiDoo Summit that needs new grips and hand warmers. This is a big help. If you do change out the hand warmers on one of your sleds please post that video. Thanks!

    Your videos are sure entertaining! I have used the air hose to replace grips several times. It works great!

    Yes that’s the way we doo it. The skidoo has a hole in each grip so you have to plug the opposite grip if air is escaping. Having a camera woman with happy fingers is helpful

    Rick, great video , you worked so hard today !!
    You should have a beer or two from the keg mini fridge behind you . I think you should do a video on the keg mini beer fridge. Where to get it and why its so important to have in a garage.

    Never cut on heater element, one slip and now you need element and insulation

      If theres any movement with throttle block or brake reservoir assembly , start there ! Also depends on sled and where the control switch is ?
