Welcome to the forum.
Step 1 is to always get the number one tool, the service manual.
The left grip is held on by glue and most times is more work than it's worth. Stock type grips are not expensive.
The right grip is bonded to the throttle sleeve and once the adjusters are collapsed, can be removed but don't loose the ferrules.
Don't forget to lube the new bar under the throttle sleeve.
Also, don't skip step 1.
