handgrips

#1 Unread post by Fargo360 »

I put some nice clip ons on the cb360, only problem is the old stock handgrips keep falling off. Was there some adhesive I was supposed to put on them to keep the grips on or did I miss something?

Yes you are supposed to use handgrip adhesive.

Yep, adhesive, or in a pinch hairspray works well... :-)

Every Honda I've had with or without stock hand grips seemed to have the same problem, damn things kept trying to slide off. Tried glues, paint (shops solution), tapes, wraps, you name it and never solved the problem. Something about Honda grips that just drives me around the bend.
Always ask why.
