VERY RARE - Brand new Traction hand grips for sale, in original box, never installed

[vtech007]

Asking $200.00 or highest offer. PM me. Highest offer in the next 24 hours gets them. Other than that, they will be listed on eBay where history has already shown I will get this price. Part number 55959-02Y. Traction hand grips for all 1996 and later models (except 1996 S2 - T). These are brand new original parts in box, never used or installed. Very rare and hard to find, hence I bought them as an investment and paid WAY more for them than their original list price even years ago. I planned to put them on my Firebolt, but due to my aftermarket cruise control system, they would have to be modified to install them, essentially destroying their original condition, and that just would have been a shame to me. I would rather see them used by someone else that would retain their originality. Grab them while you can (pun intended).

$15, only because I prefer the stock grips...

Perhaps a pair of the finest bowling shoes you will ever see, from Lunatic’s private collection:

Thank you, but to clarify it is $200.00 for the pair or the highest price offered. With all due respect and with no offense intended, some of you may not realize what you are looking at. These are impossible to find. Thank you again.

Oh, we know what they are. Just giving you a hard time is all. They're not worth more than the original retail to me ($40 for the pair? Maybe, on a good day?) so I'm just here for the post count and bump the thread. I personally prefer the stock thin style grips. I've had a couple of XB's with the traction grips and didn't really care for them at all.

I will trade you a slightly used Pirelli Diablo Rosso Corsa front tire for the traction grips and not a shilling more!

Dilly dilly!

The rubber on that grips is 13 years old. They are almost trashed by age.

But he bought them "as an investment".

I'd like to see the rest of his retirement portfolio:sleeping:

Maybe I'm just repeating what I have been told (and believed) and am trying to get back out of them what I have in them. I see we have a little misunderstanding here but man, you guys are a little rough. I am now reminded just why I stopped visiting this site years ago. Later.

Aw :sorrow: Sometimes when the Vtech kicks in yo.... it's more than you can handle.

Agree ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^100%

I can't believe such rare item is for such low price, just $200, it should disappear pretty fast.

This thing is probably more rare than EBR Black Lightning.

 

[vtech007]

I put the grips as available on here first sincerely thinking I would give one of my brothers (maybe even the guy who sold them to me) a shot before I offered them to the rest of the open public, honestly in the spirit of being a help and keeping it in the family. What is the thanks you guys give me - a load of flak. So I went ahead and listed them on eBay. In less than an hour they sold for a significant amount above what I paid for them, the buyer paid for them, and I shipped them out Priority Mail. Thanks anyway. Considering further diversification of my portfolio as I get the last laugh.

 

[TPEHAK]

Like I said it is going to disappear fast.

 

[34nineteen]

You should get the last laugh, you sold a set of almost 10 year old grips for $200+.

I’d like to sell my XB for $10-12k, any advice?
