"I don't need to skiv it" It's funny to hear someone who takes a craft seriously talk themselves out of the little things😂. I do that all the time with stuff I'm working.

Are you going to stamp a pattern into your grips? That would look great, I think. Good project for a rainy day maybe.

heavy bar ends help remove the vibrations.

I'm building/making my first chopper from scratch. I've already made a leather seat, and I want to use the same leather for the grips. Is contact cement all you use to secure the end of the wraps?

@tri333ple 7 ай бұрын

Contact cement would work well, but for extra security, you can either use a thin metal wire to tie the grip down, or use a thick thread to tie the end. I used tiger thread at the ends of my grips here.

You should machine the mirror clamp so it's 7/8". If you don't know a machinist, or have a machine shop nearby, you can do it yourself with a drill press and a drum sander.

I would but I don’t think there’s enough material in the clamp to still be secure enough. Thanks for the advice tho! Will try it if I find something thicker
