I want to experiment and bring my handlebars (wide glide) closer to me. When I do this it will tilt my buttons on my controls down so, if I loosen the controls to face them to me will it screw anything up i.e.. throttle cables, grip positions, etc... I have aftermarket grips that are supposedly glueless but I had the dealer put them on so I don't know if I will be able to turn them or not.
I hate to sound stupid but just curious.
Thanks.

You shouldn't have a Problem, just loosen them up a bit and turn them where you want them!!!

When I've done it I'll pull out one screw at a time and put a drop of Blue Loc-Tite on them!!! :D

I hate having screws falling off my scoot while riding!!! :yikes

Just make sure the wires are still in the dimples & dont get pinched.

Yup. What they said. Also, don't overtighten the screws or else you'll strip the control housing threads. Ask me how I know. lol.
