Default ISO Grips with Helmet Locks Install Question
I know this has probably been asked before.

My wife got me the iso grips and a set of helmet lock endcaps for Christmas. Anyone have this configuration?

I think my main concern is the Handlebar end weights currently in use on the stock bars. The Helmet Locks are a lot lighter and I'm worried that this might change the handling characteristics of the bike. From what I've inferred, the weights are there to help with vibration and handling. Should the new grips compensate for that now?

Also, I'm hesitant to use the crazy glue they provided with the grips, I've heard people using Gorilla glue, which is outrageously expensive IMHO. I think the last time I put grips on my old Kawasaki gpz, I used weatherstrip adhesive and let it dry overnight.

Thoughts? Opinions?

Thanks
