Hi Rock,

As far as I am aware, the handles are made of approx 1/2" diameter tubing, running along both sides of the seater approx 18" and wrapping around the rear of the seater just where the seater tubing bends upward.

Hi Ken

Tks for the info. Would you have spare handles that you would like to sell. I don't have any on my seater and it's going on a show in July.

I believe that the model 500 didn't have side handles.

Rock,

No I don't but but I don't think that it would be hard to bend some tubing and weld it on. I can take a photo of my seater and sent it to you so you can see the handle.

Rock,

Barrie is correct, the 500s did not come original with the handle bars around the seat. If you want one, I think I have an extra 502/3 ski seater frame I'd consider swapping.

Hi Barrie,

Rock, Barrie is right. Just checked my 500 manual and it does not indicate handles on the seater, however the 502/3 does.

By the looks of my seater they use to be some handles for it because Theres some holes on each side for handles.
