Video tutorial

In this video tutorial, you can see how to install grips and stabiliser weights on a scooter. The grips can be removed in several ways: First solution, if the grip is loosely attached to the handlebar, simply lift it and pull it outward; second method, use an air compressor to blow compressed air under the grip; the last method is to use alcohol, slightly lifting the grip, apply the alcohol and twist the grip.

The throttle grip is larger than the other grip, usually 24 mm, while the other is 22 mm. To fit the new grips, use plenty of alcohol to help them slide on easily. To install the stabiliser weights, you need to drill a part of the grip.

Once the grips are installed, insert the stabiliser weights and tighten them with an Allen key as shown in the video.

To remove the rear seat of a Hyundai Tucson, follow these steps. Start by moving the front seats to their most forward position to gain space. Next, locate the release lever on the underside of the rear seat, near the floor. Press this lever down while pulling the seat upwards to unlock it from the anchor pins. Once unlocked, tilt the seat upwards and forwards to remove it from its position. Repeat this process for both sides of the rear seat.
