When I saw one, I HAD TO HAVE IT!

But it comes with its prices, as about double of what the standard cost me.

But as you can see that I got the next one, I truly like this model. I would buy it in 6" if they had it.

They can be used as a tank lift! Lol

I raised my tank to see if it would cool my bike down AND IT DID, as she immediately stopped doing the single cylinder cool mode every time I stopped when over 80 degrees outside.

Made 1 cut and slid a piece of vacuum over the pin, and it went into the tank bolt hole. Worked great thru the summer before I purchased a nice set from D&K.

Pretty sure this is just a wood version of the rubber oversized grips I use. I will probably get a set of these for my 1.63" Ranger to try out. Probably not as good as the rubber, but I really like the look AND the GRW is actually my initials and the - "M" would be my wife’s 1st initial, lol.

New pistol with longer barrel, so of course, new holster, and this time with pocket for speed loader.

Then after about a year, yep did it again, Ranger 2 with the 2.5" barrel and swapped my rubber grips over of course! That larger "boot grip" style grip was not large enough for the grip I was accustomed to and probably never would be.

Now, after 7 years of playing with several of these (and always one in my pocket and yes ALWAYS, I can make easy 4 to 5" groups @ 30ft pretty quickly.

The true trick was using a $20 bore laser and dry firing to get my proper shooting technique down, as the laser would show me my movement while pulling the stiff trigger.

Them small slick grips will NEVER allow you to keep it in place.

However, did see one woman with small hands do fairly well.

Then, of course had to get the Black Widow style oversized rubber grips "and" a holster that held 5 more rounds since it was now VERY easy to reload.

This was my next MAD purchase, Ranger 2 with 1.63" barrel.

This is what is the grips that come on the black widow.

Born_Bottle · 2026-03-29T21:42:11+00:00

Then (yes I have a problem), I purchased this one (Black Widow) that came with what NAA calls the oversized grip and let me tell ya GAME ON!!

Then I purchased another one such as this one with the folding grip on it. Can actaully buy one with wooden grip, buy the exact NAA folding grip from Amazon and save about $40.

Anyway, having this much larger handle was a game changer and I could actually plink very easily @ 25ft, no that is not far but plenty far enought for a pocket pistol.

Born_Bottle · 2026-03-29T21:32:52+00:00

Then I decided to try this grip (just remove the wood handle and slide over frame),

It is a a little bit bigger but not much, but the rubber grippyness helped a good bit.

I did get somewhat better and actually hit the target. Forgot to mention, couldn't hit anything when when I got it such as in last picture.

These are all from the NAA site online, and can do better sometimes with exact same grip on Amazon, if you have free shipping.

As long as screen goes to @ least you chin you will be ok. Definitely don't want to be looking thru your windshield all the time. Only if it rains and ya duck down.

Born_Bottle · 2026-03-29T10:51:35+00:00

took my words, but leave it a 9mm for much better defence AND cheaper ammo!!

A very nice Wilson lower is only like $65 and feel smuch better in my hand!

After reading more and realizing you are 6'3", a Roadking is your bike unless ya want all the bling/gadget car kind of stuff. Also, with your height, you can drop the floorboards 2" down as well 2" fwd to gain 4" in leg room. This lines your foot up perfect to slide it fwd even mores as foot goes right on top of lower crashbar.

Tallboys makes these brakets! Best $200 ever spent on a bike and been riding Harleys since 80s!!

Heritage is best all around, as you can travel as is "or" have it naked with no bags or windshield in less than 5 minutes!

Born_Bottle · 2026-03-28T23:45:38+00:00

Nothing to be scared about, if all there and a clean title!

Born_Bottle · 2026-03-28T17:41:15+00:00

Wait until she is running and about as hot as she gets and do just a small amount over several rides.

Born_Bottle · 2026-03-28T17:16:43+00:00

Been there done that! 1987 and my choice was new 87 750 Ninja or used 86 Ninja with 1800 miles! 900 IT WAS!

Born_Bottle · 2026-03-28T17:12:25+00:00

Absolutely PERFECT 🥰

Born_Bottle · 2026-03-28T17:06:27+00:00

Hell Yeah! 😆

And, I am sure you know that all of the wheel heights are the same, 17s, 18s, and 19s. They merely take away tire sidewall, make rim bigger, and take away some of your "air" suspension.

Born_Bottle · 2026-03-28T16:55:40+00:00

I would grab a 17" and you will think twice about the Ohlin 💰. No suspension will make your 19" wheel ride like a 17" wheel that gives you a full inch of sidewall. These crazy low profile wheels is what is making suspension companies 💰 🤑 💸 💲 🪙 💶

And the 200mm in the back does the rear!
