changing grips
Although I have never tried this; What about double sided tape and gasoline. Thats how I put grips on my golf clubs. Tape on the bar..a little gas for lubricant,slide the grip into place and the gas evaporates leaving the tape sticky again. Has anyone tried that?
The gas might melt the grips tho..thats my only thought. Golf club grips are not afffected.
Just a thought

I'v always used the soapy water trick as well. My grips have always stayed tight and in place afterwards. The only downside to this method is waiting for the water to evaporate.
i use the hairspray trick. I bought the glue cause the guy goes oh, and what happens if it gets wet, n i went uhhh...n bought the rubber cement glue. Worse thing i could of ever done in my life. I couldn't get the hold grip on cause the grip glue was drying so fast that i couldn't.........used hairspray for the other side, worked fine......
honda sells hand grip cement for $6.00 if you cut your old grips off and use rubbing alcohol to clean the surface then cut the ends of the grips off put a thin layer of glue on the inside of the grip and on the plastic throttle sleeve then slide it on. you shouldnt have to work that quick,just make sure to clean the excess off so it doesn't bind the throttle. it will take a day to cure but after all that the grips will never move.sucks bad when grips rotate.
i've always used hairspray too. it works well since its wet at first and allows it to slide on, then dries really fast and becomes sticky

when i changed my grips on my 1krr i cut the factory ones out since i wont be needing them anymore,i sprayed some of the wifes Hair Spray inside the grip and the hair spray acts like a lubricant and holds better when it hardens..hope that helps..
