Default Lifter block chrome covers adhesive

Hey Guys,

One of my chrome covers on my lifter blocks is loose and rattling. What kind of adhesive do I need to secure it back in place?

Thanks,

Mike

Use a pair of pliers to gently grab the side of the cover and very carefully rip that phoney crap off your bike.

I'm just teasing, but I don't like anything on my bike that is not functional. Less hardware means less chance of problems.
