Bonneville America Forums Forums Technical Forums Accessories Please help with Kuryakyn 6236 on my 07 America

Received my new Kuryakyn 6236 iso grips today. Have had apart twice and I can't figure it out (don't want to brake anything or ruin a cable). Went to the manufacturers site and found a PDF for the 6236 but, of course it's not working.

I have the two halves of the throtle controls separated (two screws). I also went so far as to take off the handle bar mount for the control assembly.

Now I have a grip that slides back bout 1/2" off the bar and have no idea how to get enough slack off the cables to remove them (yes I backed off the adjusters). WTF!!!

Any help, pictures, guidelines or advice would be greatly appreciated.

I am a contractor by trade and 12 years as an aircraft mechanic. I have skills but, a little guidance would be most appreciated. Thanks in advance.

BTW... got new progressive 412s today and they were a breeze to install.

Well, I was able to view the manufactures PDF on my I pad. Unfortunately it is the same as the single instruction sheet they provide in the package. Guess the next step is calling the manufactures tech line?????

Thanks for the reply. I backed out the lock nut (at the top of the housing) and took out the small screw releasing the lock down plate. I got a little more slack but not enough. I really don't want to mess with the other end of the cable if I don't have to.

I did go to the ISO grips a while back. Then had to replace the throttle side a couple years later as the cable end keeper broke. When I replaced it I just wrestled the cables to get the parts back together. It was very tight and I did kinda kink one cable. I will be here soon again as I now have a broken "return" throttle cable. Replacement is on order now.
Seems I loosened the handlebars and rotated them down for some slack when I originally replaced the grips. May have even raised the tank a bit to unbundle the cables for a bit more slack. I will be much more careful this time when replacing the throttle cables

This video isn't 100% like ours but it should give you an idea of what you will need to do. Again, we won't get this much slack but the idea is the same.
