loose throttle grip
 

I went to the store earlier today and on my way there I was accelerating at a brisk pace to merge with traffic on the highway. I grabbed a handful of throttle and nothing happened, the bike just fell flat on its face. Within moments I realized it was just a loose handgrip that was spinning around the plastic housing, not really a big deal, but annoying. I was able to use the throttle by squeezing it pretty hard.

Anyway I did a quick fix with a pair of zip ties on each end of the throttle grip just to hold it in place. I'm gonna buy a new set of grips, but is there any good way to keep them in place solid?

grip glue, but then its impossibly hard to get them off.

Hair spray works great. Just buy the cheapest stuff you can find. I have nearly an entire can left over from when I swapped out my bars almost two years ago. I fogged them good. Just ask Trip about taking them off :lol:

yeah that clutch side wasn't being friendly.

Yup yup. Aqua Net for the win!!

Personally I would use grip glue.

I've done the hairspray trick on every single pair of grips I've done... I guess it's the climate here in TX, but they all came off/come loose.

I did the hair spray thing at daves house a few weeks ago. Worked fine for a minute, then poof out of nowhere it broke free

must be cause they are old grips, or because you didnt let em set up overnight. You didnt get em on backwards by any chance did you?

I dont use glue or spray of any type and have never had a problem.

A little double-sided tape.
