Great tip. I did this but sprayed soapy water on the inside of the grips. Slid right on and off easily over that plastic. Literally took about 5 seconds.

Worked brilliantly - although I did use a bit of soapy water as well. The plastic bag made it very easy! Thanks!

[robbeck]

Worked for me but the bag tore a little bit puling it out. Was able to just roll the grip puppy and retrieve the extra plastic. Thanks for the tip!

I had put one grip on already and it was a massive effort and then I stumbled upon this video. It was relatively much quicker and easier.

Several methods suggested here on YouTube, I tried this one and it was easy peasy, at least as easy as shown here if not even quicker.
Thanks!

Just got mine yesterday and got frustrated trying to put them on. Watching this video. I am now excited to try this to get them onto my Vulcan S. Thank you!

That’s very clever 😊
I’ve installed at least 10 pair of these successfully - with soapy water. I might try this next, thanks 👍🏼

[TexasREGuy]

Thank you, this helped a lot. I has to roll the grips up to get the plastic out on the second grip but that wasn’t too bad

I have a VFR1200x and fitted a pair this morning, I just squirted some Quick Dry Electrical Contact Cleaner inside the new grips and they went on with a gentle twist in seconds, literally about 10 seconds ... the contact cleaner dried about a minute later and grips are on! Standard size Puppies ... not rode it yet but install was a breeze.

Sir, you are a grip and life savior. '' Grip savior '', because till i saw the video, i destroyed 4-5 pairs of them, using various methods, that believe me, you don' t want to know, because you will laugh, even when you sleep. And '' life savior '' because I CAN SLEEP TOO, now. ps: the grips i bought AND destroyed they didn't have not even close, the price of the Puppies. Fortunately.

Excellent technique. However I applied some soapy water to the inside of the grip puppies and some on the existing grips and did mine and it took all of about 10 or 15 minutes at the most.
Thank you.

Ingenious!!! I always used Aeresol hairspray but this is a much cleaner way.

I just installed the puppy grips on my FJR1300 - with soapy water. Easy, fast, no problems. I really dont understand why people are always having problems sliding these over. I put it in soap water, slid it over the handle - and used a towel to just bring it completely over the handle bar. It takes not even 20 seconds on each side

[kengoold]

great tip, going to try mine now, Thanks Jerry, Australia

[My.Sm.family]

This product works for me installed them today by applying small amount of Vaseline in the hole went in easily

[stuharris]

I bought Grip Puppies for my RE and found them too fat and squishy, even for my big hands. I use leather wraps from Trip Machine now. Great feel, and a cool classic look.

[pauleedeehimself]

Tried it on my gas handle. Was quite difficult.
Soapy water in left puppy and boom. Fitted in seconds.
Also, could not get the plastic bag out... didn't work 4 me. Good tip though 😇

[henkmarinus]

Very good methode.... Maybe also a bit soapy water between the plastic and the Grip Puppies?

[kawaiibutterflyeditstwo]

Hi. I was going to try this but I just put some drops of water Inside the grips and they slipped right in.
Thanks though…

[JanChacn]

Thing is, how do i remove them without damages?
