That's why I have 08 in my sig line...  Hopefully owners of the slower 10+ bikes will understand that. ;)

Gumout spray is your pal, snooter tube shoved under the grips and a spritz... ez off...spray the inside of new grips and the bars , and ez on..... evaps in minutes no residue and worthy of its usage.

I finished up the install, this evening.  Overall, the throttle side went much smoother.  I put a little car wash soap on the outside of the stock grip, and I peeled it over itself and it came right off.  It was almost too easy.  This way I still have my factory grips if I ever want to swap back.

Thanks for the tips, everyone.  I won't need them for a few more months, but I will have HEAT this winter!!  yay!
