Where is Fatboy Throttles? Where are they?

I was doing a search and keep getting place holder pages for Fatboy Throttles. They don't show up in Google either per se, just stories and videos about them are indexed, but no Fatboy pages.

Bought out? New name? Where are they?

Looks like they use a pistol grip from an M-16 rifle, should be easy to modify.

Actually what they use/used was the AR-15 grips from Hogue. I already bought one and made my own throttle. Came out nice. Now decided to do the same for both sticks. Getting close to paint so was thinking about just buying theirs already wired.

Guess I'll just order a couple through Midway (they're about $17). See below:

Here is my throttle when I first finished it a few months ago:

He got busy with a family project, and will be back in business soon.

Just ordered one of these grips...not for my Rocket or RV but for my AR-15!
