We have added a support around the lower tank to make everything stronger.

If there is anything else that you guys can think of let me know.

Now all I have to do is get some production parts built for all of you.


Thanks for all the help. Tom

Your rad guards look like they would only block stones from hitting them, no protection if a crash, (side protection)

look at unibikers rad guards for the 06-07






these would protect in a crash....

Sorry, they will only work with our plate. The mounting tabs are welded to the plate.

Thanks Tom

They would provide some crash protection. The 1/2" tubing holds up surprisingly well to crashes. I was looking to keep them a lighter weight. I can build something heavier duty if that is what you are after.

Let me know. Thanks Tom
