Just after some advice about putting new grips on.

Do most of you just use Grip Glue?

What Brand?

Or is there some other type of glue you use?

Or some other secret weapon?

Tube says BBR GRIP GLUE.
It's OK, I can't remember where it came from.

Yeah I've just got some nice sticky one's here so I figure I might as well throw them on.

Last time I changed a set was almost 10 years ago, I think I used glue can't remember.

Just don't want to go down to the shop if they're gonna want $20 for some shitty little tube.

Xa how do you find the rizoma ones? Are they the aluminium with foam?

they are really awesome. they are the aluminium with rubber. there are lots of cheap coppies, and i had driven ones on my SV, but they were rubber, with ally bits over the top, where as the rizomas are the oposite, which works a lot better and makes them easier to fit/remove. just have to put loctite on the grub screws... i lost like 5 of them before i did it :P

Yeah it's a serious question, mostly interested in what people use other than grip glue.

Don't even come close to fitting, if it's seated properly it works like a cruise control it's that hard against the switch block and there's way too much space between the bar end and the grip.
