I've used grip puppies for a few years now. I'd highly recommend them. The other trick to do is wet the grips themselves as well. I find twisting them on worked best for me. But at the end of the day if you get them on you've done it right. Take care mate. Ride safe. 👍👍👍👍

[@SkeggyCruiser]

Cheers buddy, yeah I got them on in the end, I must admit I did expect them to go straight on with the air preasure from the compressor but nope, lol, well chuffed with them thoughm thanks & RSM8.

[@volgnit]

That reminds me. I bought a pair of them for the FJR a couple of months back. Now I know how to fit them. Thanks Skeggy.

[@SkeggyCruiser]

Haha! sods law thats the sorta thing you buy and they sit on the shelf for a while, Hepcat Harley just said he took them off his FJR as he didn't like them on it, hope you have more luck, when you get araound to it, lol, RSM8.

[@HepcatHarley]

I did the same, got them soaking with suds, placed two flat bladed screwdrivers inside both sides of the grip puppies, prized them apart thus making a sliding ramp and they slid straight on. After a season I took them off, didn't like them on the FJR.

[@SkeggyCruiser]

It would appear the the answer yet again is plenty of lube eh! lol, I was getting hand cramps when riding it, I think because I've got big fat ones on the cruiser and my hands are knackered with the old aurthitus thingy, yeah I would imagine they don't feel right on all bikes, probably the hight and angle one the barseffects it, Thanks & RSM8.

Had them on my C5 they are great!

[@SkeggyCruiser]

Cheers Buddy, BTW I'm watching all of your Virago vids as they appear, loving the patina look, it's looking great especially with that tank, RSM8.

[@iRidetas]

Thanks mate! I'm loving doing that bike!

[@KarlTheDingbat]

I am waiting for mine to arrive, hopefully before this weekend, are you doing sunny hunny this weekend?

[@SkeggyCruiser]

Bit late answering you again eh! yes I was doing the Sunny Hunny Run, lol, btw do you want me to look into how much it would cost to post you the exhaust out to you bud?

[@KarlTheDingbat]

@@SkeggyCruiser Yes please mate. I have my grip puppies as well, just not got around to putting them on yet.

[@phillipmoore8114]

Nice one

[@SkeggyCruiser]

Cheers Phillip, most appreciated.

[@banditnev]

I also thought wetting the original grips may have helped Skeggy.

[@SkeggyCruiser]

Yeah but me being a bit thick Nev, I didn't really think about that until I was editing the video, lol, thanks Buddy & RSM8.

[@CBLounge2112]

I put my Grip Puppies on with an air hose and nothing else, took me about 30 seconds for each grip. Cheers from the CB Lounge 2112!!

[@ferrisnox]

How exactly did you do that, any videos on youtube?

[@beverleynorth4914]

What exhaust have you got on your RE. Better than Scorpion?

[@SkeggyCruiser]

Hi Beverley, the exhaust I've got fitted is the Lextec very nice sound with or without the silencers in, here's a link to them although you can buy them from elsewhere, thanks & R.S.S. accessories.hitchcocksmotorcycles.com/accessory-shop/Silencers-Only/42264

[@nicholasstanton2168]

Easier if you also use rubber gloves to grip the slippery puppy

[@SkeggyCruiser]

I'm useless with rubber gloves on, just can't get on with em, but yep your probably right, lol,
