Hotgrips unstuck
#4
i had the same problem Jamie when i replaced my Oxford heated grips.

the clutch side went on without a hitch using lines of superglue to hold the grip in place.

however, when i did the accelerator side, the superglue was pushed up the grip and caused the accelerator to stick to the mounting. i had to remove the mounting next to the grips and clean off the superglue (scraping it away) which then unfortunately meant i neded to respray that piece.

on the plus side - i now know how to strip the handlebars Smile
