so i hate how the little ball on the end of the clutch and brake lever, so i cut it off! here is what have done so far... I pulled off the levers and cut off the ball at the end of each, i then turned it down on the belt sander. after this i usedsome 1500 grit sand paper to smooth it all out... just powder and done... i will post the finished product when i get them back... here is the pre coating pics:

Looks cool. The slimline approach. What color powder? Besides, you can always use them as shanks.

 

I do all my powdercoating on the bike in black chrome... should look real good!

 

Black chrome, huh? I definately would like to see pics of that. Does the aluminum showthru any, or just black?

 

just black... check out my gallery... i did my bars, push rod covers, and rocker boxes in it already... looks like and shines like chrome... just black love it! i am having a ton of stuff done this time i will post as soon as i get them back

 

here is the final product!

A friend of miine came off his bike and the handlebar end made a nice 1" diameter hole about an inch deep in his inner thigh, dread to think what would have happened if he'd had sharpened spikes on there too

 

That looks real good man! I think I found another little mod project to add to my winter list of things to do!

 

Very nice!! Do you like black?

Looking good, my friend. You are right about that black chrome!
