Default Which epoxy to use?
I've got a 2018 Ultra Limited. Has deflectors attached to the inner fairing. Unfortunately, those round nuts embedded in the ABS have decided to come out. What would be the best way to get them to stay in?

Heat with torch ant melt them back with screw on then remove screw. No epoxy works good with ABS plastic.

ABS is a bitch to work with. Best I've found so far is the JB Weld Plasticweld. As Boomer pointed out tho, they make repair fittings that work very well.
