This bike is amazing... I'm afraid, very afraid :wink:
Thanks.
So I needed somewhere to put my "sponsership" decals. Inspired by kingfish, I cut up a piece of cardboard and said, "That should work."
This is where I am sticking the stickers.
Cut out some pieces of plexiglass:
Then needed a way to mount them on the bike, so started machining some brackets for the rear:
Cut 'em out and stuck them on:
They mount to the back of the wheel bracket using bolts that are already there. Then I need spacers to move the plexiglass out where I want it, so I made them:
That left brackets for the front to make. Here they are started, as I tap some 8-32 holes:
Cut one out:
This here looks like someone lost grip of the part whilst beltsanding it thereby causing the part to get sucked into the beltsander and get stuck between the part-rest and the big wheel that turns the belt, thus breaking the belt, putting a big gorge on the part and bending it, thus requiring some hammer work to get it straight again:
Yep, that is what it was. Anyway, moving on, here's the part fastened on the back of the sissybar/wheeliebar bracket with the two bottom bolts that already exist.
There is one from the inside:
Test fit after drilling holes in the plexiglass:
Painting:
Now waiting for the paint to cure so I can continue...
