Just ordered some gel grips for my 08 cbr1000 and was wondering if there is a trick to making the removal of the existing grips easier ?? If anyone can offer any advice, please let me know. Thanks.

If you don't ever think you'll use them again, you can cut them off. What I do to remove and install new ones is to take a long, skinny screwdriver and carefully insert it between the bar and grip. Then I take a can of contact cleaner with straw attached and squirt just a bit up there. Then I wiggle it off, or on. You may want to test it on the grip first to make sure it won't melt it. I used something by accident once that melted the grip, but I can't remember what.

I've also heard compressed air works well.
