STEP 3
With sandpaper or emery cloth remove all grip and adhesive residue from both the throttle sleeve
(right side) and exposed handlebar (left side). If your throttle sleeve has ribbed marks or other
protrusions, it will have to be sanded or ground smooth to allow the grip to
slide into place. The surface should be completely clean and slightly roughed
from the sanding. With an ammonia based cleaner or similar degreasing
agent and a clean rag, wipe off the throttle sleeve and exposed handlebar.
STEP 4 Test fit each side. The throttle side grip has a slightly larger inside diameter
than the clutch side grip. The grips should slide into place with slight
resistance. If the grips slide on too loosely, make a “barber pole” wrap
around the bar or throttle sleeve with electrical tape (PIC.1).
INSTALLATION OF CLUTCH GRIP
STEP 5 Insert the stepped aluminum spacer into the left side grip as shown and push
it all the way down the inside of the grip until it bottoms out. PIC 2
STEP 6 On the clutch side, slide the grip on until it is up to the switch housing.
Rotate the grip to determine the orientation that is most comfortable. Make a
mental note of the location or make a non-permanent mark on the grip and/
or switch housing. Remove the grip.
CAUTION!
USE EXTREME CARE WHEN USING THE GLUE INCLUDED IN THIS KIT.
READ ALL PRECAUTIONS AND AVOID CONTACT WITH SKIN OR EYES.
IT IS ALSO A GOOD IDEA TO COVER ANY AREA OF THE BIKE WHERE
GLUE COULD POSSIBLY DRIP DURING INSTALLATION .
STEP 7
With an ammonia based cleaner or similar degreasing agent and a clean rag,
wipe off the exposed handlebar and the inside of the grip to remove any contaminates. Take one
of the supplied tubes of adhesive and squeeze a good amount of glue onto the inner side walls of
the clutch grip. Rotating the grip while applying the glue will help distribute it evenly. Make sure
you get the glue all the way to the end of the rubber insert in the grip.
CAUTION! The adhesive supplied sets up ALMOST INSTANTLY in the absence of air.
There is enough time to slide the grip into place, but once it stops moving,
it cannot be adjusted.
STEP 8 In one smooth motion, slide the grip onto the end of the bar all the way into position. Rotate
it back and forth slightly as you slide it on to help distribute the glue evenly and keep the grip
from “plowing” the glue up against the switch housing. Once in place, squeeze the grip firmly to
press the rubber against the bar and hold for 15 seconds. Full bonding will occur in 24 hours.
ATTENTION!
It is the installer’s responsibility to ensure that all of the fasteners (including
pre-assembled) are tightened before operation of the motorcycle. Küryakyn will not
issue a warranty on components lost due to improper installation. Periodic maintenance
may be required.
