this ? is for all those who have made the change. Do you find that they are worth the headache of install? Lately i have found that my right hand is going numb after 30 or so miles. I try and tell myself that my grip ( not kungfo ) is too tight, but if i relax any more, i think ill fall off!

Dealer put mine on, so it was not a headache. I love mine and recommend them. They are a larger diameter, so you will notice that right off the bat.

its really easy to do. theres no headache involved at all. 15 minutes tops. Its definitly worth it. just make sure you save those chrome ends on the stock grips. you can use them as a cap for a key.

I'm not sure I fully understand the question but headache would be involved with changing out the grips. The ISO are a very comfortable grip.

I changed mine out over the winter and used the flame ISO grips and they are a little fatter and feel so much better.

Had the dealer take care of mine. Was like $20 in labor and where I am they all charge $90 an hour.... I won't get started on labor rates. Anyway I too was afraid of the glue so I made someone else do it. It's worth it no matter who puts them on. The ISOs make the ride more comfortable.

Dude:
If you getting the Kury ISO grips, they take a whole 15 minutes to change.. Razor knife the old ones off and glue and slide on the ISO grips.

You don't even need to dismantle the control cases..

Forgot to say I did not use the glue that came with them because giving me one shot at something is not enough. I used the black 3M adheasive that body men use to glue on the molding. Strong stuff and after a couple of days you can't pull them off.

Now that's a good idea! Gives you time to get them located (rotationally), test-ride them, and end up with them exactly where you want them. Good thinking!

Be careful on the throttle side don't use much it will have your throttle sticking, crap gets everywhere. Just a little.
