I do clutch side first because, since that side will usually (Harley grips) only fit one way. You can then line up any logos or whatever because the right side grip is adjustable... I did an attic insulation job once... ONCE.
My Mother always told me to do the difficult first, and then the easy. If my bike needs something done on her I either take her to the dealer or my Husband will do it. You are so much fun to watch, and now I know what the ends of my handlebars kind of look like without grips. 🤗
The clutch side reminds of how the goose neck on bicycle attaches looked very similar, but been few years since I took apart a bicycle goose neck lol. Also jsut had to laugh when you told the viewers to remind you where you placed the screws lol.
Just want to say, just got a low rider s here in Australia and I have binge watched your vids! Such good info on pretty much everything I’m upgrading! Love the vids!
secret wit da cottoncandy is to get it in as soon as u possibly can & b done widit. done lots & lots & lots of it. 😬 eye got new grips on da ironhead a couple daze b4 sturgis! 🤘😘
Stop in at a Dollar Store and buy yourself a couple small metal food/water bowls for a cat or small dog. They work great for holding hardware so you don't misplace it. The kind with a non-slip rubber ring around the bottom are best. I been using them for years so I don't lose small screws, nuts and bolts while working on my Harleys. Ride safe ✌🇨🇦
@@MotoBlonde A magnetic bowl would work perfectly. Not many things more annoying than having to put your tools down and drive to the hardware store because you've dropped a nut or bolt and couldn't find it again to finish the job. I've had way too many of those experiences in 35 yrs of wrenching on my Harleys.
she's too funny and cute, Love it when she crumbled up the instructions and her funny faces when she makes funny puns lol She's fuckin Awesome, love her style too, I gotta get those same grips, they are sweet.
so this is a new harley vlogger that i forsee as doing very well for herself she has a lot of energy and personality. she has an interesting yankee accent (maybe philadelphian ?) she has a cool bike and is not afraid to get into her own wrenching... i see her doing well. blow her up peoples! she deserves some attention. (tell em Damnit Dave from facebook pointed you this direction lol)
hey hey. you are doing great! i watch more youtube than television and i think there is a LOT of room for new content creators i think it is awesome to see more women get their wind therapy on and customize their baby. i will be rooting for ya dudette.
There's been so many times that I almost pulled the trigger on these over the years, but I always default to the significantly cheaper Thrusters by Biltwell. Give us an update video on these after you put some miles on them, would be interested to see if their worth it! Great video 💯
I usto work for a crime scence clean up company and i got the thin white suits and did it that way.. and clean it up use the cheap swiffers from the store static will be your friend
I kinda hate to say it, but I kinda regret buying my FXDR I should have gotten the Low Rider S. I can’t find any attachments for it. Everything on your bike looks amazing!
Nice job ! I suspect you'd have small hands like me. If it is the case I suggest you try the Thresher grips by Kuryakyn. They are a bit thinner, the shape is particular but comfy and the grip is incredible. They cost half the price of the Biltwell but still have a good finish. Ride safe. Cheers.
what, we don't get to see what food you got? you can't mention tacos and not show people. that violates biker vlogger rules lol. not sure how much it is but theres a insulation called Roxol , i think, its made from corn husks i think. it isn't itchy, doesn't burn or mold. and you cut it with a bread knife. supposed to be really good. or spray foam but you would have to move or cover everything and i know it costs more. good vid looking forward to the build.
Nice work!👍...did Avons on my my R/King and love 'em. Trick I learned was spraying bar with Windex 1st for install, grip goes on easy & it evaporates quickly. Haven't had to use adhesives yet! The front brake perch can be tricky because of the brake switch. Harley's are notorious for breaking easily, some people shim it especially when changing levers. The ones you instl'd are a great match to your diamond pattern saddle!👍
Great job, You should have gone with heated grips I just added them to my RGS and I love them well worth it especially in New York. I use mine all the time and I live in Cali where it never gets that cold. :-)
Have a 23 Lowrider S and tried to use your Amazon link. Not sure if they’ve discontinued them or what but link does not work. Do you have a part number or anything? Keep the videos coming!
Just installed alumicore grips on my harley thorttle by wire However the throttle side rattles it works just the rattle drives me crazy. Does your throttle side shake also
🤔 Easy first. Then hard... cuz if not, the hard-one-first gets me pissed off, & I am not even feeling it by the time the easy side comes up. 😂 Easy first usually gives me SOME hope.
I love the look of these, considering them for my 2022 Low Rider S. I've read a few other reviews where several operators stated throttle side rattles, have you experienced this?
Awesome intro and videos. Wish I started a channel before doing everything to my bike but im thinking of getting ones going for roadtrips. Any tips for starting out ?
Sorry I didn’t see this comment hiding!! Thanks I appreciate that!! Do it!!! Don’t worry about the latest and greatest equipment - just record and HAVE FUN! Learn the basics about YT - I had a lot of learning to do on editing too lol
HD stock grips are garbage! Always do the hard side first that way you can cruise to the finish line. I’m also getting a better camera setup for installs and some lighting.....game changer! Here’s hoping you’ve got a camera under the tree!

Great video but I can't find your video that you mentioned briefly about putting grips on a Sportster.
It's coming once we start the build!
I love the way you say off. And can I say If you think your garage is messy , that is not messy my dear believe me. Great video blondie. 😎😍
haha I guess you're right, it could be worse! Thanks for watching!!
Nice to see the electrical throttle control assembly. Only worked on cable operated machines of / in the past, thanks!

@@DamnitDave Appreciate that! Same for me - I barely watch TV haha!
@@MotoBlonde i learned more from the university of youtube than i ever learned at USF lol
I reckon the factory grips are the best wierd yeah but they are just simple that’s why I prefer them
Simple is good!
Fiberglass is Great fun, I spray foamed My garage and put in a mini split for HVAC
We have a split in the house - that would be perfect for the garage!

I definitely will! A lot of people raved about them so it convinced me to try.
Don’t have a Harley. Still liked and watched. Great how to!

The new grips look great and cool how they don't need glue 😎👍 yeah don't need heated grips, just use good winter gloves 🧤
That’s the plan! More to come 😉🤣
Awesome. Great to see people wrenching on their bikes.
Thank you!
I have a toast-r-oven in my shop too ... and a fridge, micro wave, and a 55" screen
Sounds like a dream garage!!!
Yep
I’m going to bring my bike to you for all the upgrades I don’t have time to do. 👍👍👍

Lol!!! Aw man that roxol sounds awesome!
Thank You. I always wanted to know how to do this project. Great job.
Glad it was helpful!
I paid 20 to get mine done, next time and I’ll know there will be a next time I’ll do it my self. Great vid!
Nothing wrong with that! Definitely doable if you want to try yourself next time!
I could watch her all day , just sooo Adorable.
🤣 was totally waiting for you to say “one grip is for the throttle, one is not for the throttle”
😆😆😆😆
Santa better deliver on that camera! Great install video!

They match your saddle 👍🏼😎
Now I see those grips look fabulous.
Exact same ones have been on my list. BILTWELL is a good house and a fun bunch. Thanks for vid...
I love them! Thanks for watching!
Well done! Living in the northeast you’re going to want those heated grips! Next job! 👍
I know! I can't make up my mind haha!!
Hello from NYC...keep the videos coming
That left grip came off way to easy. mine was glue on tough. Damn near had to grind the thing off. Great job nice grips.
Wow I'm glad I didn't have to grind it off lol! Thanks for watching!
Nice how to video! Insulating sucks but the reward is awesome 😎❤️😎
Can’t wait to be done! Thanks for watching!
I like the new grips, the diamond ♦️ pattern matches your seat pattern. Nice 👍 work
Thank you!
Cool install. Looked pretty easy. The grips look awesome.
Super easy! Thanks!
That was a funny look you made in the camera! Think we all got it! Lol
Nice clean and quick install. Those grips look great. Way better than stock. 👊🤙
So much better!
new grips look good. Save those OEM parts always someone like me looking for them. (for salvage rebuilds)
Very true!!! I have a box of all my OEM parts - couldn’t do that one grip though, lol
I like to start with the more challenging part first. That way it's all downhill when you're ready for the second part install.
I like those grips
Very thorough informative video.
This girl is cookin' with gas!
Thanks for watching!
Great job!! A look of pride😃
Thank you! 😄
Spray Foam Insulation would insulate without the fiberglass itch, just saying.
Great job, You should have gone with heated grips I just added them to my RGS and I love them well worth it especially in New York. I use mine all the time and I live in Cali where it never gets that cold. :-)
Ile just buy another pair of factory grips I reckon
That was very informative,Thank You.
That is the perfect looking grip! I bet they feel good too :) I ended up getting the Harley Dominion grips, which look kinda similar.
I'm really liking them!
Just a tip. Cover your tank and front fender with a blanket or actual covers to protect your paint. Scratch and dents suck on paint.
I usually do, and I said it to myself in the middle that I should have 😂 thank you!
@@MotoBlonde 👍😃
Thanks for the lesson,that was great
Thanks for watching!
cool grips, not available here in the UK tho.... :-(
Aw man! Thanks for watching!
Thanks for sharing sister, 👍👍👍
Thanks for watching!
Great vids, nice content, love the way you explain the “non-technical way” and you’re an absolutely beautiful lady.
Dixxon is the best in the biz. Gotta closet full.
Love em!
Good stuff.. 😎👍🏼
Always hard part first. Then coast the rest of the way.
Ponytails very interesting ratiing system, 1 is super easy so high does it go?
5!

Just installed alumicore grips on my harley thorttle by wire
However the throttle side rattles it works just the rattle drives me crazy. Does your throttle side shake also
Not that I've noticed!
Nice job!
Thank you!
Are they just as think as the stock grips? I’d like to find thinner ones.
I've only taken them out once so far - but they do feel a bit thinner. SO much more comfortable!
I enjoy your videos
was looking at these grips! thanks for the video.....are they the same diameter of t he HD grips? and problems with rattling or coming loose? cheers!
Are they soft and good grip in hand?
They are VERY comfortable!
Got um on mine and love um. Awesome upgrade 👏 😎
I love them so far!
🤔 Easy first. Then hard... cuz if not, the hard-one-first gets me pissed off, & I am not even feeling it by the time the easy side comes up. 😂 Easy first usually gives me SOME hope.
haha right!! Definitely helps!

Sorry I didn’t see this comment hiding!! Thanks I appreciate that!! Do it!!! Don’t worry about the latest and greatest equipment - just record and HAVE FUN! Learn the basics about YT - I had a lot of learning to do on editing too lol
The key to insulation is a tyvek suit, scott face pack, tape your gloves on, and hope you don't need to pee any time soon. Lol
haha that was definitely an issue!
They are in your pocket you told us not to forget 😂😂
😂😂 you got my back!!!
@@MotoBlonde yea I’m the same way so now I put everything in zip lock bags while I’m doing projects on my bike haha keep up the hard work !
👍
I did insulation for 5 years n bats are the worst should try spray foam or cellulose n next vid can you say “it’s your cousin, from Boston”
haha! We called about spray foam - but everyone is so booked, and this definitely saved us $.
@@MotoBlonde for sure it is pricey but worth it
How are they holding up
Perfectly!
Always go heated
What mirrors is she rocking here? Ive been wanting to flip mine. But all I’ve found hit the tank
Stock! You may have to get adapters if they hit the tank. There's a link in the description for a set just check fitment.
You crack me up,but informative Lmao
Insulation install sucks! More so during the summer! Yikes
Gross! I definitely wouldn’t want to be doing it in the heat lol!
@@MotoBlonde Great job on that install btw. You go MB!!
@@phoso29 thank you!
whats the name of that seat? more then saddlemen
Just the Saddlemen Step-Up Seat I believe!
I just removed these grips they rattle and real lose!! Not a fan of them
We should save these stock grips...Said no one ever.
No one ever
good info! how do you like them so far? good witty puns too lol who doesn't love a smart a** lol laters MB
😂that’s why we get along lol! Love them so far!!! HUGE difference over stock
I put in insulation under my house 30 years ago. Never again!
haha! At least it's something you usually don't have to do again!
Like your videos
8:30 🤣🙂
2 nuts on top and just have to blow on it a lil bit in the same install, im dead 💀
😆
150 dollars for grips; crazy
I had rewards points 😂
8:31 hahaha

once all the insulation is all up and finished,..... then sheetrock goes up.. BOOM,..... sooooooo insulation wont be all over the place,....lmao...: )
haha!!! Definitely no sheetrock for awhile 😂
@@MotoBlonde ... it'll.give the garage a nice clean look...then youll need to paint it as well.....😉😉
