well I tried getting mine off and tried and tried and ended up cutting them off
they are glued on, so its a real bear, if you have an air blow gun you may be able to stick in in there and pull
as far as the new ones when putting on if you need to push/twist them on be careful not to break the actual grip apart from the plastic interior
Good Luck

a tip for putting new grips on is the take a air gun that has the barbed type nozzle on it. most hand grips come with a hole in the end of them to give dirt dobbers a nest. another great use is the stick that barbed fitting in that hole and plug the other end of the handle bars and actually blow up the grip like a ballon. once you get it where you like it just release the air pressure.

Just did mine with the same part #. Cut them length ways and peel off. The clean the glue off with lacquer thinner or "Goo Gone". Clean the metal well then take anything thats left with 400 grit sand paper. Make sure that it is clean enough that you don't have to force the hot grips on. If they slide on easy, no worry, cause the epoxy will bite into the sanded metal and stay tight. Good luck.
