  • Time to ditch the factory Honda grips for something a little more....stylish. In this video I show you how to install new grips on your 2008 Honda Shadow 750 Aero. While mainly specific to this make and model, it should be just about the same for any motorcycle.

    compressed air, or rubbing alcohol. Soapy water works well in a pinch.

  • @bennyshoestring

    Use an air compressor to get them new grips on. Just shoot in from the inside of grip and they balloon up enough to slip right on. Motorcycle mechanic friend showed me that trick

    • @LuckyAcesRiding

      I heard of that as well but don't have a proper compressor, just the small automotive kind. Excellent tip though!

      yeah compressed air is way easier for removing grips and windex for installing them, wd40 for installing is dumb, you can never get it all out and it will screw with your grips for months, some grips are porous and the wd40 will actually soak into the grips, the ammonia in windex will help it evaporate quickly.....

    Well, now that they have been on for a couple weeks how do you like them compared to the stock? How are long rides?

    • @LuckyAcesRiding
      @LuckyAcesRiding  Рік тому +2

      They grip (no pun intended) much better than the factory grips. It is almost a sticky feeling. Not sure about longer rides since the weather here is still all over the place but I am very happy so far!

    Yeah wd-40 works great, could probably use soapy water in a pinch. Helpful video thanks!

    • @LuckyAcesRiding
      @LuckyAcesRiding  Рік тому +1

      WD-40 for the removal to dissolve the glue then hot water and soap to install the new ones. That would probably work well.

    alcohol is good. Get it on quick and it evaporates faster for a quicker stick.

    if possible you could also just used compressed air to remove the grips :) .. ty for the video and ofc installing them also :)

    Hey lucky, my throttle tube is broken. Are those easy to replace?

    • @LuckyAcesRiding
      @LuckyAcesRiding  Рік тому

      It should be fairly simply. Remove the controls from the right side of the handlebar, remove the grip, disconnect the cables, installation should be the reverse of removal. Once you get your eyes on the part itself it will make sense.

      The cables came from Mean cycles, but a lot of people buy theirs from Motion Pro as they are more affordable.
