Default SH!TSH!TSH!T need help....

sure does, it lubes just enough to get the grip on, then twist it around a bit til all the wd40 dries and that sucker isnt moving for a while.

just make sure not to spray too much or else it wont dry and stick

the WD 40 actually kinda melts the grips and then they are really stuck on
i used to ride bmx bikes all the time and thats how we did it
also you can use nothing except an air compressor and a blower nozzle and just blow the grips on and they will normally never move

but yeah ive had the same problem but now i have a twisty so i dont have to worry

also you should invest in a pair of sfety wire pliers they are the best tool ive ever bought
and if you charge your buddies a couple bucks everytime they wanna use em youll be rich in no time
well..... maybe not but they are definitely worth the 20 bucks.
only problem is that you will poke your hands with the wire if you dont wear gloves when you ride
since i safety wired my grips they havent budged

damnit... well just measured the grips... one side is 4 1/4( the side that fits) and the other side is 4 1/4 so these are for a dirtbike [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif[/img]... DAMNIT!!! really nice Smith grips... o well...
Huh? If both sides of the bars are the same diameter (I know of no bars that have a different diameter on one side lol), then they should work if one side works. Makes no sense to have the same diameter bars, the same diameter grips, and one side does not fit. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-confused.gif[/img]
