Well we can't make up a huge batch if not very many people want them so it really depends on demand. Right now there are only a handful of people interested, but if the list picks up we can have more made. There are minimum order quantities on these parts and right now we're not close. To not take a huge loss on another run we need 20-30 people on board, and committed.... we can't have these made in 5's or 10's unfortunately or we would

FYI I was doing a little spring cleaning when I stayed late at the workshop and found *TWO* boxed 93 smooth handles under some packing materials on the top shelf. I remember putting them up there however many months ago for one customer that was going to pay, apparently they never did and I forgot about them (till now).

First come first serve on the last two. We're also out of 94 handles as well now so anything from this point on would have to be from another run, however it looks like we don't have anything close to what's needed for the next run yet.

We're down to 10 or so handles left total (all of which are 94 finish which is a slightly textured finish compared to the smooth 93). These are left over handles from a large group buy we ran awhile back, however since the order quantities needed for a production run are in the hundreds we need a large amount of customers ready to order before we can do more production runs of the handles. If there is enough interest/volume for another production run we'll consider it however until then we only have a few left of the remaining finish (as it sits essentially in back of the plastic, and most of the exposed area gets recovered with the OEM grip surface there's not a huge difference visually between the two versions once installed).

Unfortunately the few handles left are all we have at the moment. Once these are gone that's it until there's enough interest for another production run. Smaller volume casting runs would up the price of the handles even further... as interest in the handles drops off it makes it more and more difficult to stock them, and keep the price reasonable. This is part of the unfortunate situation that plagues the FD... small numbers.
