The graphics on my WR are peeling already! Paid £60 for the bloody set and only rode it twice since Laughing what glue should I use to re-stick the loose bits on with?? Thought superglue might be a bit too harsh.

Do you have a heat gun (or a hot hair-dryer)?

I should imagine just heating it back up so the original glue is all melty should see you right!! Thumbs Up

Some people say carpet glue, but i don't think that works too well.

I'll find out what the old man used for his bike Thumbs Up

Not too sure don't use super glue, if you have to take the graphics off for what ever reason you might struggle to get it off + some plastic reacts with super glue and melts. And the hair dyer may work but it could also peel off more of the sticker. Try hairspray maybe?
have a read of this:
