FOUND IT 461 3/4 wrap handle

[RyeThomas]

Hey guys I'm looking for a 461 3/4 wrap handle. I've seen a bunch online that spec 046/460 but no mention of the 461. Not sure if they will fit? I'm not looking to spend a fortune at the dealer for a new handle that's going to get banged up, list is pretty steep on these things.

Let me know what ya got, PM is best.

Thanks, Rye.

460 one fits but the 461 is a little longer.

 

[RyeThomas]

Thank you sir, guess I'll hold out awhile and see if someone has a 461 handle.

I think I paid about $110 for a 460 one new.

 

[RyeThomas]

Ok thanks, so my dealer hasn't lost their marbles.

Guys let me know if ya have anything, I don't want to spend $100+ on a new one.

I think an oem half wrap is about $70. These don't come up very often for that reason unless someone gets the R model and wants to trade to a half.

I put an OEM 461 handle on my 440 hybrid, so the same handle will fit any 044, 046, or 461.

The AM 044 handles on eBay will fit, and they are less than $40... I put one on an 044 and I like it. They look just like a 461 handle.

Well heck for $40 I may as well order one, if you like it I'm sure it will be good for me.

Alright fellas well I ordered one from overseas, no idea if or when it will get here! LOL, but we shall see. Thanks for the help, Rye.

I already have a larger cover so I'm covered there.

I know you already ordered it, but i got this one for my 461. Ships from the US.

Just wanted to follow up, recieved my china-cheapo wrap handle. Looking at it, it seems every bit as good as an expensive handle. Fitment well as I suspected it required a little torquing to line up but it wasn't that bad. It's mounted up and good to go. It did take forever to get but $38.98 shipped vs $100 plus for something that's just going to get man handled and beat up I feel it's a win. Fwiw.


The one above looks very nice and thanks for the link.
