Default How to keep the left grip from spinning

Looking for ideas... glue?
double-sided tape?

Suggestions?

Just a stock HD grip.

i use a hose clamp to hold the grip on my shovelhead. it's a rat, so you might be a little more fussy about the appearance of your bike.

Just installed a new HD grip last week, used Gorilla brand super glue from Homedepot. I don't think its coming off any time soon!

Clean the bars well before applying glue. (emory cloth)

Once it's clean, clean it some more.
