I got some new grips for my 05 . I have changed plenty of grips on other bikes . simple to loosen the cables and swap them but this one has a black sleeve that seems to be crimped so I cant loosen the lock nut and back the tension off the cable. I feel like a Idiot that I am stumped by this .

The two nuts won't twist in opposite directions? left hand threaded? Would assume the barrel on the upper side houses the threaded end. Appears to be fully retracted, but I don't recognize the cable as stock. Usually, you can disassemble the unit if you can get at least one loosened then work on the twist grip ferrules.
Both cables appear to be fully collapsed on your bike...........
