I use nothing to glue the grips. Blow them bitches up like a balloon with a compressor and slide them right on. Never had issue with them moving.

The progrips I had slid all over the damn place before I took them off. I didn't like the feel anyway, so I put the stockers back on. Never had a problem since. 10,000 miles on the stock grips and they don't show any wear.

My stock grips have 9,100 miles on them now and they are showing wear, and I'm so tired of the virations causing my hands to fall asleep.
