I have used herculiner before for other things and I think it would be a perfect use here. I certainly wouldn't look like the original handle but would give you a better grip IMO.
I read a thread earlier where a member was talking about using black rubber hose from the hardware store. I dont remember which thread or the name of the member. He was in the process of rebuilding a Stihl 041. He mentioned he measured the handle dia and then bought the same size black hose. Hope that helps, sorry I dont remember more.
