I just dont see it, with the little clutch grip in the way.
Thanks everyone - doug
On the HD's, the clutch side grip is sleeved, just like the throttle side, so you don't have to glue the grip to the bars, or cut the old one off, it, the new one, just slides over the bars, than locks in place under the clutch housing.
If you are trying to save the stock grips on your C90, GOOD LUCK, I have been able to roll them off at times, but you always wind up having some of the rubber on the inside of the old grip sticking to the bars, and if you try to use them again, it's real hard to get them to stay in place.
