Bwahahaha. Indeed.

 

I fitted PRO grips last night and they're hexagonal not round - took me 5 minutes to make all the lines along the grip exactly straight. The PRO end caps have arrows on them and they both point EXACTLY forward ;-)

 

Don't get me started on brake/gear lever angle and distance from end of bar...

 

Do you use a tape measure to put your shoes, slippers, sandals under the bed?

 

........... und I vant to hear only one click..... ja!!!!!!!

They have a thicker section?! I just gobbed into mine and it slid on with a little effort.

 

Indeedly. Hold them up to the sun and observe the thicker edges.

 

Or you could, of course, read the instructions *muuhaahahahahha*

Fanks pops.

 

I use WindowCleaner to get em on & off. Since reading this thread, my girlfriends compressor has another use :)

 

PS....why do we want them off nicely in any case unless you moving them to another bike?

 

Your girlfriend has a compressor?

I still put the grips on with hair spray - it allows me time to get the grip exactly how I want it. I have hectic OCD so the end of the grip must be EXACTLY flush with the end of the bar and the thicker section of the grips must be EXACTLY where my hand goes. Can't really do that with air...

 

Okes with hairspray in their toolboxes worry me. They invariably also just happen to have Cutex in there to "touch up the odd scratches in paint." Yeah, right.
