Slipping Grip

[Spotsdad]

While out for a ride today I noticed my throttle grip was slipping. I would imagine lots have had this problem. What did you do to fix it? Temporary fix? Permanent fix? I don't want to buy new grips because I like the ones that are on so fixing the ones on it is what I'm after. 

thanks Spotsdad (Dick)

Take it off, clean real well, let it dry, spray with hair spray and put back on immediately.

Is there a certain kind of hairspray? I tried that but the kind I bought didn't work. I don't know anything about hairspray so any info would really help

What you are looking for is something with some stickiness to it so it would hold the grip to the throttle.  Look for a hairspray that claims a lot of holding power or a spray on glue..  You are trying to make sure the grip sticks to the white throttle.

When I installed my new grips, they included a small bottle of superglue to spread over the bars and inside the grip.

I ended up using lacquer and ordered a new set. I needed to do something yesterday cause it was such a nice day I just had to go for a ride. Thanks for the replies.
