Ran my brake line through the handlebars for a cleaner look.



Installed a switch for my LEDs into the handle bars since I am not having any of the stock controls.

Thanks, have not clear coated them yet, and I still have to do the red to the front rim. It takes SOOOOO long to tape off the black to lay the red powder. But it is something I can do in the house while watching tv or whatnot. Just can not do it when the toddler is up cause he wants to "help" and makes it hard to work!! LOL!!

Project for today, is cutting up the stock hand control casings to fill in this gap:




Decided I am going to cut the hand control box to separate with the brake mount. Using it to fill the gap between the mount and the grip so I do not get this:



Instead.... I will use the control box to make the grip be in this position:



Made some mock up lines to cut and play with the welder a lil:





Will post pictures when it is completed!!

Ran out of flux core, so decided to tape off the grips and add a little red to the handlebar area.



Did some other little parts. Just waiting to get paid so I can start putting it all back together!!

You know there's a brake/clutch switch pod delete that you an get from Lowbrow Customs. Don't think cutting the stock housing will look too good! You will be left with one of the holes where the switch used to be!
