How difficult is it to change the handlebar?? how long will it take?
I have the Suburban Machinery handlebar sitting here for awhile now.

Takes too long. Send me your SubMach bars.

Oh, and by the way, this is a SV650 forum...

Took me 30 minutes. 5 minutes to remove everything and 25 minutes to adjust everything to my liking :D

I know, I just thought I'd state the super obvious for you. Maybe you see how it feels to have your thread wasted away by stupid ass responses. ;)

if they're not glued on then just use a WD40 spray bottle with the little red extension....get some good lube under there, and it will slide right off...

if it's glued on you could try heating it up with a hair dryer, or just cut them off and pick up some new ones, a new pair of grips is pretty cheap....

yes use compressed air adn small flat screwdriver to gently w'out tearing the grip to lift it up....then use the air to blow them off...windex aor hairspray wirk better to get hem off..wd is hard to clean off afterwards...
