Hi guys!

I tried Scott Grip Stick to install some grips on my friends Polaris and all seemed fine until he put the heaters on high which loosened the grips. From reading the instructions it looks like this adhesive is for motorcycle grips which of course are not heated. What is the best adhesive for heated grips?

Grip glue from a sled dealer, not a bike dealer, few different brands out there. But a good sled shop should have some.

I would think gasket maker should work too, I use it to stick a lot of random things together.. Haven't tried it on grips though.
 
5 minute epoxy
 
Any particular brand of epoxy? Is it a two part epoxy that is mixed together before application?
 
Yamaha offers a grip glue also.

Have used 5 min & the Yamaha stuff.
Either works.

With the Yamaha stuff, you can use the grip heaters to speed up the process after install.
It also gives you more work time to get the grips on.
 
I used Gorilla Glue brand 5 min two part epoxy and the grips are still tight after a short test ride ride this morning with the heaters on high. Thanks for the advice guys!
