Anyone ever consider this mod? If so, post pics please !!!!

 

Have you seen the Wild 1 Outlawz? The are similar. I don't know about now, but i remember in the past reading that the gimps were not knurled. The wild 1's are knurled.

I don't think they are knurled, just wondered if anyone put them on...i think it would look awesome. I have a set of 16" bars and they are not knurled. how much slippage would I expect if I install them Dr. V-twin..?

 

I don't know. I have always run knurled bars.

I've got a set I'm installing this winter. They're not knurled. I've read you can put sandpaper and they won't slip.

 

I have a set of flyin apes that I’m installing on my lo. The flyin are not knurled. What I did was drill into the the bottom riser and placed a tension pin in each one. The pins stick up maybe 1/4 inch. Then I set the bars in place where I wanted, put the risers back together and tighten them down. By tighten them down the pins left marks where I needed to drill. Now the bars lock into place because the pins go into the holes and when you tighten the risers down the pins will keep the bars from ever slipping. I hope this makes sense. If you want I can post some pics.

 

I will post some pics....

 

Here's some pics of the mod.

wow. I was thinking maybe some skateboard grip tape on the bars where they mate with the riser would prevent slippage...don't want to drill into my bars, besides, they are already open at the bottom for internal wiring install, but I am not going to do internal wires...

 

I also used a little grip tape since I just bought a new board "I crack my on our mini pipe". Dont be afarid to drill it's not that hard.. If I can do it anyone can.
