So I bought a set of clubmans from
www.sportingforless.com (they also have an ebay store). They came as a really nice set with bar end mirrors and new gel grips. I installed the bars, which was a giant pain in the neck. Apparently I made things more difficult by running the wires through the middle section of the bars. Oh well, that's done now.
Next problem, I cannot get the damn grips to stick. Especially the throttle grip. I have tried the dish soap trick, the hairspray trick, 3M Spray Adhesive, and gorilla glue. The Gorilla Glue worked the best so far but still came loose after about 20 minutes in the saddle. The only thing that I've heard of left to try is grip tape. Could this problem be caused by using the old sleeve? it was pretty gunky from the old grips. Should I try and clean them off with some Goo Gone or something before I try again?
Any ideas is appreciated.
