I'm not 110% sure where

To post this as I haven't been on a forum like this in a longtime(shout out to explorerforums) but how hard is to change out grips? The ones on the bike are old and drying out but still work(why replace if they arent falling apart)I noticed the other day while riding it seemed like the throttle one was ever so slightly sliding off? Or maybe I don't remember the approximate 1/8th gap between the grip and the the starter switch housing... Also, any youtube links or tip on replacing a frayed clutch cable? I had a few strands break off at the end of the day and will be ordering a new one tomorrow. Follow up to that question, How ya been buddy? Everything good? If not, have a bro hug to feel better. If so, still have a bro hug.

PS, is there a way to set the forum to notify me of a reply to a thread like I set it to notify me when I receive a new pm?

PSS, My trip odometer reset is broken. What is the best way to go about fixing this mamba jamba?

The easy way is to get a long thin screwdriver and work it up inside the grip, while you spray a little lubricant up inside (soapy water or hair spray).
If it is new grips, I would not use a lubricant.

If they have open ends, compressed air can work wonders, too.

If they DON'T have open ends, use a small drill to put a hole there, then use compressed air. They come off quickly, so be ready to catch 'em.

As for the grip change:

I literally just changed my grips last weekend. Easy as hell. I bought new Oury grips

Step 1: Get the old grips off. Dispose of em.
Step 2: Clean bars.
Step 3: Spray bars with rubbing alcohol.
Step 4: Slide on new grips, position to your liking, wait 24 hours.

The end. Easy as pie.
