make sure you buy the one for your bike since it's a different length than the newer bikes Dave

Basically just a knob with threaded end. It's m8 X 75mm(3")

Yeah I saw that. He sells both and they are different in the pics, but the descrition for both says 45mm which I know is wrong. I need the shorter. I think it was a typo on his part.

Bob, thanks for the gadget link. Didn't think to look there and will probably make my own.

I went to Home Depot and bought 4 knobs, then took 4 metric bolts, cut the heads off and threaded them to fit the knobs. Looks and works perfectly.

Yeah, same guy on ebay.

Too bad they don't have metric allthread. Then you could buy a foot or 2 and just cut it and grind the edges (using your new dremel) and you're ready to rock.
