Paint, spit, use wire and tie them bad boys on!

[TrapZ400]

safety wire will do it

I use spray paint, on the bars and grips. Let it get tacky and slide it on. Holds on through everything. Safety wire isn't bad idea either, 2-3 wraps and pull it real tight.

Spray paint has always worked for me. Somehow it works better than grip glue.....:ermm:

grip glue is shyt!, get some thin wire and wrap it around once in 2-3 places, get some plyers and twist the ends so it tightens, cut off the slack and bend it over, best to have the joint kinda pointing to ur knees, so under and slightly back.

grip glue and hairspray together always worked for me. safety wire is a good idea too.

I use an air hose. Been doing this for years. Poke a hole in th end of the grip, blast it with air and slide it on. Sometimes you will have to get someone to hold the first side on when you do the 2nd side.

before that I use gorilla glue or weather stripping glue.

Wrap the bar with electrical tape. Pour some gas into the grip and slosh it around so the whole inside of the grip is covered with gas,while its still wet slide it on the bar over the tape and let it sit for several hours.

x2 on the gorilla glue. I'll never use anything else.

That's weird...I damn near have to cut my grips to replace them.

is there different kinds of gorilla glue i had to dilute it with water or something i forget its been like 2 or 3 years ago

[Scro]

The stuff I use doesn't need to be diluted. It comes in a yellowish bottle with a orange label, and a gorilla on the front. It doesn't take much either. As it dries, it expands. You can make a mess if you are not careful.
