And the lesson... dont cut off the old grips.
I use two screwdrivers perpendicular to the handle bar, one on top one underneath and use them like handles to pull the grip off the end of the bars. |

If you want good cheap comfy grips.
Go to your local BMX/Bicycle/MTB/scooter shop and get some "Hoffeman" style grips. You can get them of EBay as-well.
They cost half the price of ATV/Jetski ones and last way longer.
They also come in some awesome colours...
I still tie wire mine on just in-case.

| check out some Jet Black Pro MTB grips from your local mountain bike store, so comfy, although they are long so if you have a block for light stwitches etc. they probably wont fit |

yeah the jet black pro are quality with locks on each end of the grip which are tightened with allen head bolts.
These go on and take off easy and once tightened don't move.
thanks scotty.
