    My Buddy JJ, had me use the Heatgun, get's the job done better and faster, no running engine, and all that other noise.

    Done it yesterday, worked great, done in a few hours.

    Love my Heli's, up another 6" from stock
    Did you make a video?

    Haha, no video.
    Got it all in my mind, the 3rd time , the first time doing it with Heated grips, just a little slower.

    Take your time, make sure you apply plenty of heat to the clutch side grip (L)makes the glue softer, and makes take-off easier, that is the only time-consuming side, the rest is a piece of cake.

    Buy some grip glue and apply sparingly and have the foresight to shove it up there quickly, use the bars in the center for grip and use your body weight to assist you to get it up there.

    If you go back to Kury ISO grips, use Zipties on the ribs for chinch down, way easier than muscle the grips to close, and plenty of liquid soap to grease it up.

    If you dont have a heatgun I guess the only option is the warmer, unless Home Depot rents them.

    I'll grab one today, how long did you keep it on the clutch side before you yanked it, approximate.
