This stuff is widely recommended for gluing these things on without using the screws. Available at places like Home Depot. I've had no issues on two bikes and 50K miles with no-fastener installations. I do think it is a good idea to remove the fender to be able to properly glue and hold it. (Which was easy on a FJR, but almost required a front end disassembly on a Strom.)



This mod is essentially the motorcycling equivalent of mud flaps on a car. Hardly a "must do", but it does help a lot to keep things cleaner. And for bikes with with low-mounted oil coolers, it really helps reduce the abuse they tend to get.

This works just as well. The Devcon Plastic Weld is undoubtably the same material, but is more viscous and fills voids between the parts.

Ron is the NO MODS guy here. If the bars or seat don't fit, he gets rid of the bike. Gawd, grips or a 'mud flap'! Gotta be kidding. ???
Yeah, I know. I just wanted to find out if he REALLY didn't know what a mudflap was for. ???

Since you guys don't like my fender extender being screwed on???? I'm thinking about these handgrips to really fire everyone of you up!! I don't doubt that ABS glue, Devcon, or the other stuff might have worked-----------I just decided that the stainless screws would look good also if installed properly--they were.

My new S10 grips-----------what do you think?

I am with ya whisperquiet - I bolted my extenda on with three stainless bolts and nylock nuts, looks just fine and probably won't be the last holes I drill in the bodywork of this bike.

love those grips, great choice. Kuryakyn products are well made ::014::

I'd say that if you put them on with stainless screws to match your fenda extenda, they would look Vewy, Vewy cool! ;D

I think he's the model all the bike manufactures use to do their ergonomics, thus, every bike he has owned (except for the ones he didn't model for) is perfect out of the crate. ;D
