Hey guys I just got a new set of grips. Does anyone have any tricks to keep them from spinning on the bars? What adhesive do you use?

I use super glue and wire..when done just cut em off, they done anyway..clean the bar off (its easy) and repeat for the new ones...I have done this for every bike with no problem...

and they do come off easy when ya change em...

I glaze my knuckles and then finger the inside of each grip.  If it's a little too tight, just spit on it.

Im having trouble getting the grips to  stick really good to my bars especially on the clutch side.

Ive tried Scotts grip glue as well as Renthal grip glue (using a Scott grip) and it goes on good and tight, but after

one moto it slowly gets twisted around. Safety wired it with no help. Any other tricks Im missing?

I cleaned the bar real good with carb/ brake cleaner to get the glue off before I put the new grip on.

WTF?

Did you ever figure it out?
