Does anyone have a suggestion on purchasing a handle to use on the Xi5 for deploying and stowing the trolling motor. I want to avoid using the motor head as a way to pull up the motor.

Thanks....Richard

There is a single bolt on handle that is used on bicycles but I forget the details, hopefully someone will provide details or you might google it...

Was 7 or 8 years ago but if I remember correctly it was a handle bar mount from Cannondale. Got it on ebay for like $25. The bar mount was an exact fit for the Xi5 shaft and the length was perfect to the deck. Bought a $2 rubber furniture leg cover from Lowes to put over it.
