slide a screwdriver under the grip (after removing the barend) and shoot wd40 under grip. then work the screwdriver around the entire grip to break the glue bond. slide off. Same for throttle side but make sure to take the grip off the lip at inbound end of plastic throttle body.

to reinstall new grips spray hair spray inside grip, this makes it easy to slip on and when it dries acts as a good adhesive.

ah pablo, you beat me to the hairspray trick.

Actually, I use the hairspray to get the grips off too, that way I don't have any extra slippery residue left when I put the new grips on.

Search for grips. I have the progrip gel grips. They are nice, but there are many to choose from.

If you're looking for thicker grips, try these:

I just installed them. They are definitely thicker and more comfortable for my hands. I'm still getting used to the way the controls feel with them though.
