Default RE: under $50 do it yourself mods!!!

heres a couple things i did .
&nbsp\\;\\\\\\;1 Passenger peg relocate . Works with aftermarket pipes only. The steel was free from work and i may have spent $1 on silver paint . The chrome peg mounts were $30.
&nbsp\\;\\\\\\;
2 Passenger backrest. Again free tin from work (welded some nuts on for mounting- costing only time)and $35 for the upolstry job.

ORIGINAL: ViagROD

Spot it yet? Cheapest. Mod. Ever.



2 cents worth of electricians tape to cover the VIN plate on the upper frame tube. It blends into the black frame and it's readily available for DMV or Trooper inspection.

Sidenote: Why is there a $ but no cents sign on my keyboard? Y'know, the 'c' with a horizontal line...?


looks great thanks
