Cotton eyed Joe Posted November 16, 2004 Report Share Posted November 16, 2004 Send CottonEyedJoe a pm. Believe he makes them. 281462[/snapback] You would believe correct. I have the standard set, and I have 2 sets of ultra light grips. They weight almost half of what my standard grips weigh. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KJ_S Posted November 17, 2004 Author Report Share Posted November 17, 2004 Call up Alba they will hook ya up. 281504[/snapback] Yes he does build some quality stuff. I want something that my hand won't be slipping off the handlebars when I am racing at night. I like the RIS Designs one that has the lines over lines on them, my buddy has some of them. Do you realize how much we pay for parts these days? Think about $75 just for some hand grips. lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you realize how much we pay for parts these days? Think about $75 just for some hand grips. lol 281867[/snapback] One thing to think about, is I put 25 1/2" holes in those grips,( about 3x that many on my Ultra Light Weight Grips) my hands never slip, and one good testament is Nyuk uses them on his drag bike. The holes allow your gloves to squeeze into them. I thought about making the waffle pattern grips, but people said they were worried that they would cut up their gloves pretty quick, and thats what I thought. I could knurl a set, but since some brands of fat bars have a larger left hand side (diametrical difference than the right of about .050) I have to rebore them for those bars. If I chuck up on a knurled surface, it smashes the knurls, rendering the useless. Too much hassle on my part. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
banshee04le Posted November 17, 2004 Report Share Posted November 17, 2004 I have Stan's DDI billet grips also and I can guarantee that as long as you have gloves on, your hands will not slip. Grip factor is great. I don't remember how much they were but it was well worth it. You'll go through 10 pair of rubber grips before you wear these out and the bling factor is off the hook.

banshee04le Posted November 17, 2004 Report Share Posted November 17, 2004 Obviously whoever is interested in them (like the guy who started this thread) is after the bling factor...thats what the billet grips are about. I'm just stating that they are also functional. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

locogato11283 Posted November 18, 2004 Report Share Posted November 18, 2004 (edited) Call up Alba they will hook ya up. 281504[/snapback] alba, who the fuck is alba? they make quad shit? they make quality stuff? ive never heard too much good about them. Bling factor may be off the hook but why dont pros use them? You decide. haha what?? what kinda pros? pro drag racers? pro mxers? billet grips arent for mxers. they are for ppl who want some bling and something different. why you so against stan's products? do you own any of his stuff? i would much rather spend my money with a stand up guy like stan than some worthless non atv riding fucker from alba. ive bought countless items from stan and he has always been excellent to deal with and he will go waaaay out of his way to make his customers happy. can you say that about your precious alba? do you even know anyone at alba by name like we know stan by name? them guys at alba couldnt give a fuckin shit less about some individual fucker wantin parts. they just put the wood to you with no lube. stan on the other hand will not fuck you around or sell you shitty parts at an extremely outrageous price. take your alba lovin ass somewhere else.

Loco has some faith in him. lol. I understand where you are coming from though loco. By the way most of the dirt drag racers don't where gloves.

I'm not going to wear gloves I'm sorry. If I do get some from you can you cut them in like some lines or something neat. I am going to buy some from RIS Designs if I dont get any from you.
