I had my right grip come of in my hand while doing a wheelie back in the 80s
I thought kwik enough to drop the grip & grab the handle bars, because my left hand pulled the handle bars completely to the left & was able to straighten the bars, just inches before the tire hit the pavement :sick:
I NEVER installed grips without glue , after that experience
I'd rather be safe than sorry !!
