  • How to remove a motorcycle grip undamaged. Sam "the Throttle Genius" Wancket shows how to remove a grip without damaging it. Will not work for some stock grips which are permanently adhered to the plastic throttle tube. For more throttle tube info, please click here www.g2ergo.com/product-categor...

      Exactly! It's a huge deal when you are selling a bike to have the stock parts

    Thanks for the tip! I just installed a G2 Street Comp tube on my Buell 1125R street bike because of a track crash that I had in October that reduced the mobility in my right wrist. Curious, what is the largest cam that I can run in the 1125 without modification to the housing? Cheers.

    Forget chemicals. Put some liquid soap on a screwdriver blade. Slips right in. Just work it around the bar a little and the grip slips right off undamaged. Easy clean up afterwards.

    • @DrInsane76

  • @rickyricardo3581

    Compressed air works awesome to remove the grips. Way easier and better than wd40.

    That's easy, thanks, but can you tell us how to remove a 'closed end' grip without ruining it?
    Would a heat gun work?

    • @NickVetter
      @NickVetter Před 2 lety

      I have seen lots of people melt their grips with a heat gun. It might help but be careful.

  • @reconnaissance7372
    @reconnaissance7372 Před 6 lety

    Don't have to just use WD-40. You can use Glass Cleaner in the same way or soapy water. Some people use an air compressor with an air nozzle.

  • @brycetreese6725

    I used a can of compressed air (like for cleaning keyboards) instead of WD40.

    • @ItchyKneeSon
      @ItchyKneeSon Před 6 lety

      This is how the mechanics at the bike shop I frequent do it. They just use air from their compressor and a narrow attachment to blow air in from the side of the grip toward the center of the bike.

  • @TheBsavage
    @TheBsavage Před 3 lety +2

    Thanks for the tip. That red thing attached to the WD-40's nozzle is not a "tube," it is a "straw." WD-40 is not a lubricant. Despite this deficiency I find it can be used for a surprising number of tasks. Not just Water Displacement (as it is named for), but also good at removing grease and cleaning sticky price tag residue off items.
