Nice Profile Picture!

Never used electrical tape, but Gorilla Glue works the first time every time! I use their four hour quick dry glue.

Thanks for the compliment on the profile picture jasnusc! Been married to her for 16 years now. She's loves riding as much as me. Couldn't ask for more. I think I'll try the electrical tape trick. Sounds easy enough and has no long term effects. Now if only the BP engineers would post a few questions about how to stop that leak. I'm sure there are some on this forum who could walk em right through the process.

I just had the left grip come loose and tried the electrical tape trick. Works like a charm. I'll go ahead and put down a +3 for electrical tape. The iso grip boys should simply ditch that glue and include the use of the tape in their assembly procedures.

Thanks to the guys who suggested electrical tape. Quick, easy, and not messy like glues.
