[QUOTE="Cobra'03, post: 112116, member: 3013"] Some of the early Tri-ax handles were prone to breaking. Steeda uses several suppliers, and some are steel, others aluminum (I have one of each). Steeda now specifies forged aluminum, and claims breakage is a thing of the past. I have a titanium and aluminum knobs, and suggest wrapping the handle threads with PTFE tape prior to screwing on the knob. It makes a snugger fit, and helps insulate the knob. I also sourced some very thin (1/16") adhesive backed silicone rubber from McMaster-Carr, punched some holes in it, and attached it between the handle and the shifter. It helps de-couple the heat and vibration, without making it feel squishy. I personally think notchy shifters are bad, and that is usually a term in the mags of disapproval. [/QUOTE]
