I would pay good money for a cup holder! I keep jumping on the bike to run to subway or somewhere and realising as I walk out that I cant put the drink in the backpack! I have figured a way to set the cup on the left forkcap and hold it in place with the brake line but one day its gonna pop its top and end up in my lap.
I figure if I put the vapor display in offcenter I should have room for something on the side. Either a cup holder or dry storage for documents/tools

Cheers Jim

Nicely fabbed products Bake. Welds look pretty, like a stack of dimes!

Just out of curiousity, do you do any vac testing or soap and blows on your products to test for air tightness?

Thank you, I have some practice making things.
My welder checks each tank to 5# positive pressure.

Good stuff! What I would like to see is a front rotor guard, I have a WC rear caliper guard that saved my tail on a nasty ride and would like that protection up front. Hopefully this spring I can get the 351 kit (life's curveballs pending).

I will continue my development of a front caliper guard this coming week. Concept is done, work on the prototype continues. I will also have a rear master cylinder guard soon.
Good luck on the 351. I can vouch for it's effectiveness in changing the character of the bike.

Thanks for the kind words on the fabrication, from a lifetime career in Aerospace, I make my products to meet those requirements.
I wish I could take credit for the welding itself, I have a young man who does that for us, and he is Aircraft Certified. I'm very proud of him.

Yea the FAA is so strict on their QA requirements. It's a good thing though. I wish the shipbuilding industry would adopt some of those standards.

I used to be an NDT inspector on ships until I got laid off and had to fall back on my IT background.
