Default RE: what is that rope thing hanging from handlebars?

ORIGINAL: Bluetoys

Most of them I have ever seen is hanging from the clutch lever.&nbsp\\;\\\\\\; Easier to get at than if it is hanging from the throttle side.&nbsp\\;\\\\\\; maybe if on the right side it would be just for looks...?
&nbsp\\;
+1. The ones I've seen used to care care of business are on the clutch lever, and not long enough to be hangin to the ground.

tunaman, I don't think what you're referring to is a getback whip.

A whip hangs by a clip from the lever.

If you're referring to your pic, what I'm seeing are leather lever covers with fringes.

That way you avoid the "dont ask me how I know" forum.

Back in the day,I liked the good old "blackjack" hanging from my pocket instead of the whip. In case of emergency.
