I haven't got any other grips to use!!

And I wont get any in time for the piss up!!!

I have decided to leave the fookers on until after RADCHESTER!!  :daumenhoch:

Damon:
Chopsticks and a spray of GT85 did the trick, slipped straight off.  No marks on the bars :D

B2's on with a bit of a soapy rub!   :laugh:

Dollarbill:
Hairspray is great for installing new grips, goes on as a liquid and dries sticky to keep the grips in place. Then if you want to remove them at any time a bit of water will dissolve the dried-on hairspray. Unfortunately, being as bald as Grant Mitchell, I don't usually have any hairspray to hand?

ROX:
Take your brakes off your bars, take your bars off your bike, boil some water, put it in a jug, deep enough to cover the grip, dip one end in the boiling water for around 30 seconds, the rubber will go floppy and should come off without too much bother!

I had a right game getting one of my Jive grips on with hairspray, but when I soaked the other one in boiling water, it slipped on lovely, and never moved, then used the boiling water trick to remove both of them without much trouble!

Oh and when they cool, the rubber goes back to normal.

Dude!
