#257573 RavenKam (User) Take Care & Ride Safe Fresh Boarder Posts: 12 Kuryakyn Grips 2 Years, 3 Months ago   The left grip on my Roadstar became unglued and slips off readily. I am considering re-installing it the same way one installs grips on golf clubs: attach two-way masking tape onto the handle bar, apply solvent, slip grip over tape/handle bar, let cure overnight, and it's done. Any comments or pointers? Thanks.   Logged     The administrator has disabled public write access. #257575 Clifford (User) Platinum Boarder Posts: 1781 Re:Kuryakyn Grips 2 Years, 3 Months ago   You can use hairspray to hold it on; and in the future should you want it off it can be gotten off without destroying it. You can also use supper glue (sparingly).

I've never heard that but it makes sense. What brand product do you use Clifford?   Logged     http://s799.photobucket.com/albums/yy279/surveywaters/My%20Bike/   The administrator has disabled public write access. #257586 old dog (User) Platinum Boarder Posts: 1602 Re:Kuryakyn Grips 2 Years, 3 Months ago   RavenKam wrote: The left grip on my Roadstar became unglued and slips off readily.

Any comments or pointers? Thanks. Read that post at another site also, sounds pretty good. I use cyanoacrylate (insta-cure+) This is super glue on steroids! Get it at hobby shops.They also have an accelerator, use that with caution, it locks instantly. We use it on the wheels of our nitro cars and trucks. bill   Logged     110 cu in., PR/JE 10.25:1 HC pistons, PR Cam, PR adjustable push rods, PR stage II ported heads (2mm oversize valves)   The administrator has disabled public write access. #257591 Clifford (User) Platinum Boarder Posts: 1781 Re:Kuryakyn Grips 2 Years, 3 Months ago   I don't know that any particular brand is better or worse than any other. Just the stuff that women and a few men use to make their haido stay put. Clifford   Logged     The administrator has disabled public write access. #257624 Curt (Moderator) Never to old to ride!

Ya can still remove them without tearing them up too.   Logged     My Site Black Ice is Shiny, Black Ice is Deadly, Ya Wanna Ride My BlackIce?   The administrator has disabled public write access. #257645 Sonny (User) Ride hard, Die fast Fresh Boarder Posts: 90 Re:Kuryakyn Grips 2 Years, 3 Months ago   Black spray paint worked for me. Spray it in grip, slide on and allow it to dry (I let mine dry 24 hours)   Logged     The administrator has disabled public write access. #257647 jamie99roadstar (User) As confused as a hungry baby in a topless bar.

I actually followed Kuryakyn's Support advice and used some glue I had at home. It worked fine, and when for a late-afternoon ride here in Honolulu.

Platinum Boarder Posts: 1777 Re:Kuryakyn Grips 2 Years, 3 Months ago   I use Aqua Net "Superhold" in my 'tater gun. It seems to be the most explosive! Cost a dollar at the Dollar Store! It's pretty sticky. It will shoot a 'tater clean outta sight!   Logged     \\\\\\\" No matter where you go....there you are.\\\\\\\"   The administrator has disabled public write access.
