Flying Flea Throttle & Grip

Hi hope some might be able to help, I have just purchased a nice 1945 flea with matching No's, needs a full restoration. Still in its Army greeen or the remains of it. Wondering if any body makes replacement grips for the Handlebars, i believe that they were made of canvas.
Regards

Unfortunatly, or fortunatly for me the R.E. Flea used an unique type of canvas grips, not seen on any other WD bike!

See pictures, still have some repro's left.









You won't find this anywhere on Epay
Cheers,

Lex

ps, also still a couple of high quality repro riders handbooks available, and parts lists also very soon!

I got some of Lex's grips on mine, the look spot on when they're done, I had to glue my own canvas on I don't know if he's glued them on yet, but I just happened to have some canvas on a roll that is an exact fit on the length.
