Now I have a question. I was putting the original grips back on and noticed that the clutch side grip was stuck to my old bars. After installing it on my new bars, it turns. What's the best adhesive for attaching that grip? And how do you slide it on with the adhesive?

Hair Spray. Just spray a little on the bars and a little in the grip, slides on real easy and will dry and it wont move. It will however allow you to remove them in the future without being a pain in the *** or having a big mess.

Forgot to say that you should use the aerosol hair spray, the pump works but not quite as well.
