Besides the screws, you have to loosen up the throttle cable adjuster so you have play inbetween the housing and the cables. They'll hold everything together even with the screws out if adjusted correctly (fairly tight). The adjuster needs to be adjusted IN TOWARDS THE HOUSING to loosen the play...
+1 Just to clarify, I believe there are two adjusters. One on the attachment point on the handlebars, and one near the throttle body cam just below the frame on the left side (sitting on bike). I adjusted both at the end but do not remember if I loosened both during the removal for more cable slack.
Thanks to Townsend and all the others who responded. I'm going to try this, but if I get over my head, I'll bring it to the local shop. I'm more used to bicycle mechanics, where the consequence of of a badly adjusted shifter/brake cable does not have 80+ HP waiting for you. Also, it's funny that moto grips are usually $10-15, while mountain bike grips start there and go up to $30+!
