Well guys and gals. Need some assistance on what sort of knob I should fit to the shaft of my French track slag. I can’t decide on material, shape, size or weight. Any previous experiences and opinions welcome please.

I’ve previously used a weighted stainless Momo knob on my Tiger R6. It was nicely sized and fitted quite well in my palm but it was a bit slippery and cold if I wasn’t wearing Race gloves.

I had a Momo Nero knob on my E46 M3 SMG and it was fairly well weighted and felt good in my hand.

Cheers

The German shafts are quite short though. The French have quite a considerable length. So my theory would be it needs a big heavy knob no?

I don’t seem to be able to find any Jamaican suppliers. All there is are cheap Chinese imports and they seem to fall short.

It’s not the shaft length that’s causing an issue. I’m just struggling with the knob. I can’t decide on texture. Whether a pimply leather bound or smooth feel. I don’t really want it to be too rough on my hands. But then I don’t want it too smooth that it slips out.

Ribbed for your pleasure.

What Mike said. Can’t go wrong with a few spikes

What about this. Do reckon it could hit the spot.

Looks like it could be comfortable...
Not sold in perforated leather. Hard to clean

What on earth is that thing? I think you seem to have the wrong impression to what I’m looking for. You filthy animal.
