Thumbs up Recycled Dunlop into Wife's Bday Present
Threw a new Dunlop on the scoot a couple of weeks ago and decided to take the old and turn into a clock for a Bday present for my wife. She's a huge Betty Boop fan so that was an obvious choice. Added the diamond plate, LED's, and glass front and Viola'! Betty Boop Harley clock. Scored some big brownie points with this one.

Great idea, anytime you score some big husband points it is a great thing, makes it easier to ask for forgiveness later when you buy that accessory that is a little to much money!! Nice job!!
