Tennis racket grip material - a lot easier than drilling out blind rivets and replacing them.

Take the armrest off, Cut it off the grip.

Take the new grip, spray insides with super hold hair spray, quickly slide the new grip over the end of the s-handle, up into position. Let it dry. Wipe any spray off the exposed s-handle.

DeepTech Vista X with 3 search coils.
Works for me

Buy a roll of black duct tape. Neatly tape over the entirety of the old grip.

I worked in bike shops for over 20 years. We always used hair spray to install foam grips on handlebars. It works great.

Soapy water works as good and when it dries grip stays in place...However removing the the armrest could be a problem.....
