INSTALLATION
Left Hand Grip
| 1. | See Figure 1. Remove the left switch housing. See the service manual. | |||||||||||||||
| 2. | Remove the grip by carefully cutting it away from the handlebar using a sharp blade or knife. | |||||||||||||||
| 3. | Remove tape and adhesive residue from the handlebar. NOTE Thoroughly clean handlebar to remove all residual adhesive. NOTE Do not install the adhesive tape now. | |||||||||||||||
| WARNING Do not lubricate left handlebar grip before installation. Lubricating grip can cause it to come off while riding, which could result in loss of control and death or serious injury. (00315a) | ||||||||||||||||
| 4. | To understand the correct orientation of the left side grip: Position the new left grip so the flat surface of tab (5) faces the rider. Fit the grooves on the outboard side of the switch housings over the flange on the end of the grip. Note the position of tab (5). | |||||||||||||||
| 5. | Test fit the grip without the adhesive tape. Remove the left side hand grip. |

Adhesive Tape
| 1. | To ease installation. See Figure 2. Make a mark 1/4 in (2) from the end of the handlebar. Keep the adhesive tape along this line while applying. To aid in alignment make a mark (3) straight along handlebar. | |
| 2. | See Figure 3. Remove the paper from the bottom side (3) of the adhesive tape (2). | |
| 3. | See Figure 2. Align one of the short sides (4) of the adhesive tape (5) with line (3). | |
| 4. | See Figure 3. Begin to apply the adhesive tape to the handlebar. Do not wrinkle the adhesive tape. Remove the top side of the paper (4) to prevent overlapping the paper while wrapping the handlebar. Fully wrap the adhesive tape around the handlebar. NOTE Once the isopropyl alcohol and water solution has been applied to the tape there is a limited time to complete the installation. Verify that the switch housing and grip are oriented correctly before proceeding. | |
| 5. | Spray the tape liberally with the solution of 70% isopropyl alcohol and 30% water. The solution will temporarily reduce the adhesive property so the grip can be installed. After the solution is applied, you have about 1 minute to work before the adhesive begins to harden. Do not move the hand grip for 4 hours after installation to allow the adhesive tape to cure. | |
| 6. | See Figure 1. Working quickly align the flat side of the grip (5) as noted earlier. Slide the grip onto the handlebar lifting the switch housing to find the final location. Align the pin (2) in the switch housing with the hole (4) in the handlebar. | |
| 7. | Mate the lower housing to the upper housing to check for proper fit. | |
| 8. | Tighten housing screws to 0.9–1.1 N·m (8–9 in-lbs). NOTE Do not move the hand grip for 4 hours after installation to allow the adhesive tape to cure. |
Right Hand Grip
| 1. | Remove the switch housing assembly. See the service manual. | |
| 2. | Disconnect the throttle cables. Remove the existing right grip/throttle sleeve assembly. See the service manual. | |
| 3. | Verify that the handlebar end is clean and smooth. | |
| 4. | Install the new right grip/throttle sleeve to the handlebar and connect the throttle cables. See the service manual. | |
| WARNING Before starting engine, be sure throttle control will snap back to idle position when released. A throttle control that prevents engine from automatically returning to idle can lead to loss of control, which could result in death or serious injury. (00390a) | ||
| 5. | Verify that the right grip/throttle sleeve rotates and returns freely not binding on the handlebar or switch housing. | |
| 6. | Set sleeve (3) aside for use during bar-end mirror or plug kit installation. |
