Title: Crank Handle for Calcutta Conquest 400.
Post by: exp2000 on March 11, 2014, 03:34:18 AM
Hi,

I live in Australia and I am after a handle for a Calcutta Conquest 400, gold model about ten years old.

The centre is quite unique and the paddles seem much bigger than other Calcutta 400s.

Does anybody know where I might obtain one?

G'day mate.

I am sure that the handle you show is specific to only the Japanese domestic market, and maybe you guys in Australia. You should be looking at their web sites for a replacement.

There are some nice aftermarket handles available, so have a look at:

Hope you find what you are looking for.

Howdy Partner,

Yep Japanoz model 4 sure.

Aftermarket handle $83 +post, 1 left in stock.

Do I really want to spend that much?

Decisions, decisions?

Thanks for the tip.
