Yesterday a buddy of mine brought his bike over to my shop for a few upgrades which included new Handlebar Grips. The bike is a 97 Fatboy which he purchased 4 months ago. As I removed the left handlebar grip, I noticed a metal tube stuffed into the handlebar. WTF? Inside the tube was 20,000 Philippine Pesos, roughly $465.00 bucks.

Apparently the previous owner used the handlebar as a stash tube to hide emergency money but had forgotten about it. Living in the Philippines, I've seen many makeshift mods but this is a new one for me.

 

thats really awesome...great suprise.

when i take my pig apart....i usually find a stripped torx head or melted wire..fug!

 

Cool find. More money for parts or free gas money for riding the bike.

 

Pretty cool, I have a 97 evo myself. Hired a guy 6 years ago to put apes on my bike, wonder if there was any money in my old bars lol....

 

 

Awesome, finding unexpected money is always nice.

 

Not only did you find $465.00 you also fixed that annoying rattle.

 

nice!!!!

 

That's awesome!

 

Boy is that a reversal of fortune!!! Thats the 1st time I ever heard of a bike or a mod that gives back money rather than soaking it up and out of your pocket!!!
