Viet Cong at Wounded Knee: The Trail of a Blackfeet ActivistIt was at Wounded Knee, huddled under a night sky lit by military flares and the searchlights of armored personnel carriers, that Vietnam vet Woody Kipp realized that he, as an American Indian, had become the enemy, the Viet Cong, to a country that he had defended at the risk of his life.

It was at Wounded Knee, huddled under a night sky lit by military flares and the searchlights of armored personnel carriers, that Vietnam vet Woody Kipp realized that he, as an American Indian, had become the enemy, the Viet Cong, to a country that he had defended at the risk of his life. With candor, bitter humor, and biting insight, this book tells the story of the long and tortuous trail that led Kipp from the Blackfeet Reservation of his birth to a terrible moment of reckoning on the plains of South Dakota. Kipp's is a story of Native values and practices uneasily intersected by cowboy culture, teenage angst, and quintessentially American temptations and excesses. As a boy, Kipp was a passionate reader and basketball player, always ready to brawl and already struggling with discrimination and alcoholism in his teens. From his tour of duty in Vietnam as a Marine to his troubled return, from his hell-raising as a violent, womanizing, hard-drinking horse breaker to his consciousness-raising experiences as a college student and foot soldier in the American Indian Movement, Kipp's memoir offers a unique, firsthand view of the enduring power--and the vulnerability--of Blackfeet culture, of the difficulties inherent in cross-cultural understanding, and of the urgent necessity of overcoming these difficulties if the essential heritage of Native America is to survive.Binding Type: Paperback

Great value!
Actually fits the hub better than the OEM cap.

Good buy and good replacement for stock
I can’t keep these on my UTV, so it’s good to find a reasonably priced alternative.

Definitely keeps your hands warm !!
Color: Black
These fit nicely on a H.D. Road King. If you bike has heated grips you can drive in 30 deg F weather with only a thin pair of leather gloves.
Update: They kept our hands toasty with the heaters on Level 2 and just wearing a thin pair of leather gloves (for grip) while riding in temps down in the low 30's, high 20's. I would definitely recommend these... the photo in the ad is pretty indicative of how they fit on handlebars. They're really designed for ATV's that have no turn signal lamps on the handlebars. Without modification, they do cover the handlebar mounted turn signals on a Sportster, but not on a Roadking. The draw string that seals the mittens around the handlebar could have a more positive grip to stay closed... we wound up double tying it around bar and that works great. The thing we like most aside from how warm they are (the lining feels great)... is that the cuffs are fairly rigid and don't collapse when you take you hands out (like the photo) which makes it super easy to pull you hands out and put 'em back in again. That's really important at a stop light, but even more important when flying down the road at highway speeds... you just can't afford to be fooling around trying to thread your hands and a coat sleeve back into mittens that are limp and flop down closed when you take you hands out...
I hope this help... be safe !!

If your hands are cold or wet after knowing these handlebar covers exist, well, that’s on you.
Color: Black
These atv gloves, mitts, handlebar covers, whatever you want to call them are a fantastic value. I was honestly surprised at the quality of construction. They have a soft comfortable cotton lining that seems to really hold heat from your hands. The cordura outside is super strong and the seams are very well done. There is a zip along the inside bend to allow for expansion over bigger controls to to allow for use with heavier gloves. (Just leave it unzipped) The draw string to tighten and secure the end to the handlebar is easily to operate and keeps everything snug and in place. It takes about 5 seconds to put each side on or take off. The draw string on the covers is about 5 times longer than necessary and I ended up cutting a foot or so off.
The down side of these is how snug a fit they have to the contour of the handlebars and controls. The material is pretty stiff, so you have to be careful. I was getting back on my Polaris 570 after stopping and I typically just leave my fourwheeler in high, so when I leaned forward on my handlebars the covers were stiff enough to push my throttle. Thank goodness nothing was in front of me, or was around to witness my panic. Ha. If I turn to sharply I have to be mindful of the material pressing against my hand and thus the throttle. It does Unzip at the elbow of the covers, but the seams are so stiff there is still resistance. I wish there was a softer material at the hand and bend, however the rigidity really makes it easy to slide your hands/arms (5’8” with alligator arms and they just about come to my elbows) in and out easily, even with a heavy coat.
They are indeed 100 waterproof, as unfortunately tested on 2 occasions. They are 112% windproof and I can comfortably ride all day at 35-40 degrees with no gloves(I live in west Alabama so sub 40 degrees is cold for me.) They have been an absolute game changer for the early morning drive in at the hunting club. They are a little stiff for sharp turns on wooded trails, but I expect they will soften with use.
Be mindful of the throttle and KNOW YOUR CONTROLS as they will be covered, but do yourself a favor and get these. If your hands are cold driving your fourwheeler after knowing these exist, well, it’s your own fault.
