ahhhhh what is with eveyroen puttin saftey wire on their grips!??! are u out of your mind? why does puttin grips on have to be some brain surgery?
try using gasoline.. straight gas, not premix. we had this debate a long time ago in a thread, eveyrone try it once before u knock it... i learned it from an old guy at a local shop of mine, he said hes been doin it for 38 years or some shit liek that, and its the fastest easiest way ive ever heard of, no messin with chicken wire and glues haha,.,, just take ur old grips off. make sure the bar is clean where its gona go.. pour a drop of gas inside ur new grips, shake it around, make sure the inside is coated, and slip it on the bar fast and dont touch it for 5 mins... gas melts rubber, it seals the rubber so tight to the bars iitts a b itch to get em off, but trus me, ull never have one turn on u while riding, or slide off ur bars when its raining, trust me, try it once, and ull feel like retarded for buyng glues and adhesive sprays and worst of all CHICKEN WIRE hahaha, sorry thats retarded, putting wire all over ur grips for what reason, gas will hold them on there and never budge, and u wont cut ur hands up on wire..

Are you really bitching about the price of gas. It is about 3.00 per gallon where i live. What is it going to take about maybe 15 cents worth of gas to do this?? It works great and well worth the 15 cents. Just return 3 pop cans and you are all set.

I slice the old grips with a blade. A dab of epoxy on the bars and slide new grips over.
