Mud, your creativity never ceases to amaze me. Love the piston/rod taillights.

 

Mud
Your friend is just as creative as you.
The taillight is cool.
I like the wrench above the license plate, the hand grenade on the radiator also and is that a cam shaft for the front bumper?

Bet that thing moves with that motor?

 

Damn, your starting to scare me, I think we think too much alike because I have basically the same unit, a Lincoln Pro-MIG 125 in my garage for small stuff.
Never used it with gas cause its more convenient to move around or toss into the truck for an 'away game' without the gas bottle setup.

But you do a better job of welding with it than I do, I don't think I get to use it enough to get the practice I need to stay good.

I have used a con rod to hang exhaust pipes with, but I never thought of using one for a rear view mirror mount or that kind of con rod/piston tail light setup. Its a very clever idea
I think your right, that tail light could look very nice on something like an XBones.

 

Citori, The cans have latches on both ends.
Did not find this out until they arrived at the Mud Hut.

Lid is not hinged, it comes off completely as opposed to at one end.

Pro's and cons to both.
Biggest con, but will find out more when the cans are actually up to the side of the bike
may be that I will have to remove a portion of the front latch in order to raise the latch and clear the shock.


Can't wait to get them on, Thanks Mud!

boy i sure do like the "decision maker"
the ammo bags are great too even if the samich gets a little squished

 

Ahaaa! just knew I'd seen them somewhere,played with the idea myself,was'nt that difficult to do,cut out and had someone weld the box up for me,was cheap and looks the nuts Thanks .... Heres the euro version..

 

Finished job.....

 

Duuuuh! F*k am I double cross posting chit today..don't mind me..not long got back from a long hot wkend swedish biker meet..brain cells not healed yet lmao...

 

Waaaaay cool. I'm not a welder though (I'm a firefighter, we're better at destruction than creation) so I'll need to find a metal fab place to help me out. I am definitely going to mod a set of cans to put on my bike.
