These grips look and feel great installed. I chose to cut the old grips off using a single edge blade (facing upward to avoid damaging the wiring for the heated grips) cutting from the end inward. As always I was cutting away from myself (to avoid injury) I recommend you do the same. It does take some strength (and a little spit) to work them into position.I couldn't be happier with the results.

The grips are exactly as described. If you have heated grips, I suggest carefully scoring the old grips with a razor a little at a time. Take your time and you should be able to avoid cutting the heating element. Otherwise, installation instructions are easy to follow. It's not really rocket science, but be careful if you have the heated grips. When removing the throttle side grip, do not destroy the plastice spacer that caps the end of the throttle.
Looking good, fast delivery :)

I needed to replace the uncomfortable aftermarket dual-sport style grips the previous owner had installed of my '97 R1100RT. I used the compressor to un-install the dually grips and took the opportunity to install a grip heater set. I used a section of underground sprinkler pipe to shim the left bar, installed the heater over it and lubricated with hair styling moose (sp?). As others have mentioned the inside of the throttle grip needed trimming to fit properly but after installing the heater, a splash of moose and a shot of compressed air it fit perfectly. It works well with the Kaoko throttle lock too. Kinda spendy but if they hold up as well as my other Wunderlich purchases they will be worth it ($). Can't wait to hit the Idaho Byways and am looking forward to the MOA Rally in Billings this summer.

Well, there is not much on the internet to help with this so I thought I would share my experience. The original grips are bonded to the inner/heater tube at the ends and in various places along the tube (1/16"X1/2") and the throttle has many more bonded contact points than left side. My heating element is the circuit board film type, not the simple wire so extra care must be taken. You must not only cut the ends off 360 degrees (extra care when cutting in all directions) around but there is a ridge you need to trim around (plastic bumps). Start (fine pair of needle nose will help pull rubber as you cut) by cutting straight down inner and outer rings and then down the length of grip but don't cut through because it will tear off). I would advise trimming down the center rubber contact points left after removing grip as they will show through the new one. I put my grips in hot water before I installed them. Hairspray works very well but on throttle I used a bit of grip glue on the ends just in case but I don't think it was necessary. I used a blade from a utility knife which worked well but extreme care must be taken. Have patience and you will end up with a very comfortable grips!

My bike came with the spiral grips and had been split for years. The local BMW shop wanted $250.00 to replace the grips and heating elements. They claimed the wires could not be saved. I carefully cut off the old grips with #11 blade and removed a small amount of residual rubber. The inside of both grips were soaked with hairspray and twisted on easily about 2/3 of the way. The last 1/3 needed a lot of convincing. The grips are great and the heating elements still work.

This is the grip that should have come on the BMW R1200GS & R1200GSADV models from the factory. Far superior to the stock OEM grip which wears at a rapid rate. I plan to use these per the Wunderlich Instructional as electric grips.
Great Replacement

My grips DID have the required relief on the inner side..I replaced R 1200 GSA grips..the only thing I had to do was Dremel sand off some nubs that were on the plastic, under the grip..took two minutes..splash of rubbing alcohol and they were on..maybe twenty minutes.. A heads up on hairspray..yes it works, however it is water soluble, if some water gets down between your grip and bar, they can and will come loose..
