    Hi,
    My Daytona DT11 heated grip installed on the ST1050 weeks ago work very well BUT I glued them with loctite black joint I had laying around.
    Today as I was trying to stay on my wheels the left grip starts to move.
    Any glue advice that worked more than a few weeks welcome.

    Rubber solution? I've used it without problem. Some people reckon hairspray is good but I've never tried that.

    Hi Hubaxe, Oxford products uk will post you out the glue you need, just go on their website and place your order, they are quick to send out. Unless the glue can withstand high temperatures it wil fail at some point, I have used their glue for heated grips on a lot of bikes and its never failed me yet.

    Mine are not Oxford brand but Daytona, and they come without glue. I thought loctite would work, but it didn't.

    The Oxford glue is cyanoacrylate (super glue) which is usually good for -55 to 250 degrees. £1.99 for 50g pot at Screwfix but I bet you have some already.
