You replaced the handle knob on the Trini? Biggest difference is the double dog on the Trini.

What hande did you use?  Mine is a Stella 18k knob which is a little larger than the stock handle.

Most probably the same one. It's also a Stella handle just don't know which model but I had the part number which don't remember now because it's been at least 3 yrs since. BTW nice job on those hoos?

I got 7 Wahoo throwing bombs with that TranX on my 10 day.  I've got another one on order which is why I have the 2nd handle all ready to go.
