I have the nylon zipper bags that are held in by velcro. My problem is the sticky side of the velcro will not hold to the inside of the fairing. As a matter of fact, nothing I use holds to the inside of the fairing.... So what do you guys use to glue stuff to the inside fairing??? |

i work in automotive & have come across a product that is an adhesive primer used to prep a surface before you install things with double sided tape. it works really well. but i don't know the name of it i'm sure you can find it at an automotive store that sells paint products like 3-m and stuff. locally car quest has that stuff. all i can tell you is ,it's called adhesive primer and works magic |

S3 type bags velcro on fairing and fairing stay. S2 only to them-selfs and stays. |

My cousin works for 3M as a sales rep to body shops. I'll see what he has for me. I guess I have the S3 bags because they came with the velcro for the side and the velcro straps on top. Thank Guys for all your help. This has been bothering me for awhile. |

I've always had good luck with a swipe of brake cleaner to degrease the surface, then sticking the tape/velcro/whatever on as soon as the brake cleaner dries. Gorilla Glue is also great stuff. |

Gorilla Glue was going to be my next choose but I'm gonna try the 3M stuff if I can find it. The bags stay in place but look like crap when the sides peel over and you see all the glue and crap I've tried |
