How to Fix a Loose Left Handlebar Grip on a Motorcycle?
2 Answers
If the left handlebar grip is loose, prone to falling off, or rotating, you can remove the grip. Apply 502 glue to the inner wall and reinstall it, then let it sit for 48 hours (until the glue solidifies).
Last time my motorcycle also had an issue with loose handlebar grips, which turned out to be caused by aged and failed adhesive inside. When I repaired it myself, I first thoroughly cleaned off the old glue from both the grips and handlebars, ensuring no grease remained, then reattached them using high-quality strong adhesive. Remember to evenly apply glue on the inner side of the grip, quickly slide it back onto the handlebar, and press firmly for a few minutes to allow initial bonding. After letting the adhesive dry completely for a day, the grip will be securely fixed. During regular rides, avoid pulling the grips forcefully, and when washing the bike, don’t use a high-pressure water jet directly on this area. This method can last for a year or two, but if the loosening recurs frequently, it might indicate deformed grips, in which case replacing them with new ones is more straightforward.
