... good effort, good value !

I voted with my wallet.

Mike i have sent an email regarding a pair. Thank you.

[Ron Pier]

One pair for me Mike. I'll also confirm by email. Ron

Thank you to those who have already replied. I so far have interest in 8 pairs after just one day so highly likely we will be able to go ahead. I have replied to individuals but just for everyones information Jeff Hunter is well known here in the UK for making rubber parts for vintage motorcycles, Ron and I have both seen his products and they are good quality. Once the tooling has been made I will be sent one free sample so I will be able to post pictures and give you my opinion on quality before I would expect anyone to make any payment.

I would be in for a pair.
I would suggest having extras made up, as there will be guys querying this thread for years to come. Virtually everybody with a carrier project needs a pair.

Hello Mike,

Thanks for taking this one on. I'll have a pair for my Carrier.

Paul Sykes is rebuilding some Carriers right now, have you tried asking him? I can send a message to him if you'd like me to?

Regards,

Tom

I'll take a pair, thanks for your effort.

[Mike Gurr]

Thank you Tom & George, your interests are noted. Tom please pass the word around as much as you like. I will be sure I get more than are asked for though once the tooling is made it will be easy to get extra batches made when needed.

[Ron Pier]

My rubber Jonnies fit a treat. Hardest part was chiseling off the wooden handles that I'd glued on. Well done Mike. Ron

[Mike Gurr]

Glad you are happy with them Ron, the first batch covered most of the UK orders. The second batch I am expecting in the next week or so should cover Canada and New Zealand orders.

I was wondering how you made out with reproducing the handgrips?
As Rob said anyone with a carrier will need a pair and now that I’m retired I’m focusing more on finishing off the needed pieces for my carrier and I would need a pair of the grips!
Regards,Derk

I missed page 2 of this thread!
I see you had them made!
Now I edit my question to;
Do you have any left?
I would be interested in a set sent across the pond to Manitoba.
Thank you.

Hi Derk,
Yes I had some made and sold around 80 which went all over the world. Feedback was very positive. Initially I took orders and sent them out as all the interest came through this forum. I don't have any left now and find for individual orders it is easier for you to buy them direct from the chap who made them for me.
Contact is Jeff Hunter of Jeff Hunter Engineering, 35 Sandgate Road, Hall Green, Birmingham B28 0UN, England.
email is Jeffalanhunter@aol.com
Just ask for Universal Carrier handgrips
I imagine he will be happy to post overseas as he makes many rubber parts for vintage motorcycles and is well known in those circles over here but if he won't post direct to you let me know and I will get a pair sent to me and post them on to you.
Mike
