    We always use 3M spray trim adhesive. Sand the bars first, spray some on the bars, spray a little in the grips and slip the grips on. They never twist around.

    Ive tried the paint, WD40.....

    Ive found only zipties/tie wraps or wire works. Put the zipties on, sand them down with a file so they arent sharp and wear gloves. I cant feel them one bit, and it keeps your hands on the grips during mud. People at TF06 can say how muddy it was lol, and im glad I had them!
    EDIT-

    this is how muddy it was.

    Absolutly. I've tried paint (never held), tried spray foam (held for about a week), tried moose grip brand glue (2 weeks), zip ties (worked awesome). Zip ties were the only way to get them to stay on at TF

    I've used rubbing alcohol, pour in the grip and slosh it around for about 15 sec, shove it on to the handlebars andmake sure you get it on all the way within a second or two when you start sliding it on or they will stick when half way on. this has always worked for me.
