Leather wrapped grips
Brass Balls’ leather wrapped grips are “designed and engineered for style and performance,” according to Dar Holdsworth - “your customers will absolutely love the way they look and feel.” They start out being CNC-machined from billet aircraft grade aluminum with a recessed knurled surface to ensure the leather will not slide or turn.
The leather is laser-cut to shape, then the pattern embossed and the leather is dyed and airbrushed. Finally, the grips and leather have bonding agent applied and the leather is glued and hand-stitched around the grip. They fit 1” diameter bars, and H-D dual pull cable (throttle by wire) versions will be available soon. Brass Balls products are available through Biker’s Choice.

‘Platinum Black’ brakes by Ride Nice
Californian designer and finish specialist Ride Nice say their “Platinum Black” brake discs have a “corrosion-protection finish that is actually zinc plated.”
President Jon Reed explains that “our zinc coating process is an extensive, hand-applied operation that is not sprayed onto the rotor, like other inferior coatings. Each ‘Platinum Black’ brake disc is immersed in different solutions during the coating process. The final result is a thick, protective coating with a black mirrored look.”
Pictured here for 2014-2017 Touring models and available soon for 2013-2017 Dyna models, Ride Nice offers a range of products with an ‘M8’ logo, including their ‘Milwaukee Breather’ air cleaner.

“Fat 30-Round-02s” beefy 30-spoke steel rim wheels
Ridewright Wheels describe their premium “Fat 30-Round-02s” 30-spoke custom motorcycle wheels as a “solid investment that now come as standard with our real steel Omega rims. The steel format is intended for professional builders and for those who want to customize their motorcycle using the strength and reliability of American steel.”
Made in-house by Ridewright at their Anaheim, California facility, their MHEs (Modular Hub Ends) are said to allow them to rapidly assemble a wheel so dealers can enjoy “one of the fastest turn-arounds on custom wheels in the industry.” The end caps of the hubs are the interface between the bike and the hub, so they can quickly and simply make sure that the wheel precisely fits the motorcycle by keeping a large, permanent inventory of these MHE hubs.
These same MHEs allow customers to keep their wheels if they sell their motorcycle, and to modify the rotor configurations (single/dual) or sell their Ridewright wheels in the future.
Ridewright offer a lifetime structural and 6-month chrome warranty and a wide range of custom color options and upgrade options for all components and spokes, with 8 popular house colors and custom options by Tiger Coatings and Prismatic Colors.
