Outside grab handle

Our 24RKS has the grab handle by the rear door. The rubber is coming off!! I've looked at the handle and I'm not sure the rubber can be easily replaced.
Just wondering if others out there have dealt with this issue.
I might have to bite the bullet and purchase a new handle. GRRRRR!
Now having just stated what I did---our ORV has been a great rig.
See ya out there......................

You can purchase new covers.

Here are a couple. I have not done it so I don’t know how well they work.

Or you can get a little nautical and get some nice 1/8" rope and do a series of half hitches along the length of the handle. Easy to do and can be nice looking and gives very good grippage.

I assume you have the slide on foam handle material. E-Trailer has a kit with replacement bolts and foam that works well. The foam slides on, and you can add a bit of soap or use air, but I was able to get it in place working it a little bit at a time. https://www.etrailer.com/Accessories...FP-1001-R.html

So, I've been wanting to try this repair that stems from my days working for an electric utility. This item pictured below is an insulating seal from 3M for underground direct buried splices on electrical. I got this one on Ebay. it is the perfect fit and I don't think it will ever deteriorate. Was a little tough getting it over the bends at the top of the handle, but it did go. Then you just position it and pull the rip cord and it will begin to collaps on the handle never to be moved again..........meaning, position it where you want it the first time.Click image for larger version
