I currently have on a set of chrome Joker Machine Grips that use set screws to hold the left grip on the bars. I got a pair of Kuryakyn ISO grips that I want to install, but I didn't want to install them using the glue just so that in the future I could pull them off and put the JM grips back on without destroying the ISO grips. Anyone have any suggestions on how to install the ISO grips so they stay on, but I can remove them painlessly if I ever want to switch back and forth? I was thinking about tapping the ISO grip to use set screws too, but I didn't want to start drilling into the new grips only to find out its not going to work...any ideas?

 

Instead of grip glue, many people have used hair spray to hold their grips on. Aqua Net is the hair spray of choice

 

I considered that, used to do it on my dirt bikes growing up, but wasn't sure if it would be secure enough to hold up to the vibrations. Thanks.

 

While travelling in heavy rain I had my ISO left grip come off and damn near wrecked. I assume the water caused a glue or spray failure. My solution was to wrap electric tape around the handlebar and forcefully twist on the ISO grip. Use enough tape to make the fit very tight and the grip will stay put but can be twisted off if you want. I put almost 50k miles on the bike after this fix with no problems.

 

For thoroughness, in addition to electrical tape, others have used gold club grip tape which has adhesive on two sides. I don't know how easy grips can be removed with it, though.

 

I used the electrical tape idea, it was tough to get it on, doesn't seem like it will move easily. Thanks for the help guys.
