| Hi, THAT I did not expect... I went out for a ride today and after 5 minutes I noticed that not only throttle boss is facing forward but the grip was slipping off. So much for a ride...went home to investigate..  I mean...bloody hell, if that slipped off completely at high speed it could be a brown pants moment. Not sure if it's the warm weather or the glue itself. Perhaps it's MEEEE, being a demon on the road...TWISTING THE CRAP OUT OF THAT THROTTLE!!  :bike4: Nothing a Locktite can't fix tough. I know few people have these so have a look and see if you get any rubbery movement starting to show (a bit of black mount is showing at the base so see if it follows or lags) | |

| Hmmm Cheap Chinese crap! I'm not getting any of those!  I've just been giving mine a good tugging in the garage and nothing seems untoward  That's my grips by the way for any sick minded people out there  | |
