Grips
Does anyone know what size handlebars I should look for in regards to new grips that I want to install? And is there a certain grip glue or adhesive I should use on the bars and throttle tubes?

They're 7/8 inch. I installed these Oury RGB Road grips using hairspray (even though the instructions on the packet say not to).

7/8" should see you right. have heard hairspray is a cheap alternative to grip glue.

I just use compressed air to put grips on and off. YouTube motorcycle grip air trick for details. No glue needed. If you don't have air, I have used water to slide the grip on. Just wait for it to dry. If you must use glue, hairspray acts as lube to get it on. When it dries it will be sticky like glue.

Have put tons of grips on just fold them in half put a tiny dab of spit on the inside and viola. Might take a little practice. Make sure your left side dries before riding of course.
