I hate my grips i have right now, and im trying to get some intense ODI lock on grips i have off my bicycle.... BUt theres a bit wider because of the clamps(they clamp to the bar) i can move the clutch inwards, and the broke, but i cant loosen the screws on the throttle, i sprayed penitrating lube stuff on the bolts and the damn thing wont budge, im scared im gonna strip the screws....

what can i do ?

Put the screwdriver in the head of the screw and while you are turning hit the end of the screwdriver with a hammer. Or go and buy a impact driver.

You can get one at almost any auto parts store or from sears. But the screwdriver and hammer will work.

another trick, if your screw driver is not wanting to stay in the screw(about to strip it out), get the end of the driver wet and dab it in some scouring powder ie. comet or ajax. this will help keep the driver from trying to slide out of the screw.
