I went back an hour later and found the left grip only slightly bonded on the inside edge. I was able to free up the grip and start fresh. This time I used locktite. The grip went on deceptively easy. As I was putting the grip on I was thinking to myself this will slide on easily. Then wham, it started to set up. I just got the grip on just in time as she ground to a halt right near the end. I managed to get it posn'd in time though. Whew! She'sa not gonna to mova now though.

Re:Eric. I never thought to really use him for the grips. I figured with taxes, GST, US exchange and shipping, I'd be pretty close to what I paid.
I am planning to use him for accessories that I can't get in Cad. though. It appears I can't get a tank bra ordered from Cad., so I'll be ordering from a US supplier. I'll keep him in mind for future business.
