Wow. You really know how to work this Build Off format, saving big moves for the home stretch!
No time to save anything in reserve. I only started 44 days ago!
. I am just trying to catch up.

Definitely a sizzler! The tank flows into the sissy bar so nicely, it really works together.

Hittin' the bricks, nice! Does it ride as good as it looks?
Rides great. I can even pump it standing in the stirrups. Got these guys to take a ride video of me around the Vietnam Memorial. I'll post it tomorrow. I have a poker game tonight.
Great photo!
Know when to hold em, know when to fold em.

I love how the sun reflecting off of the sissy bar lights up the trucker plate.

I had an awesome 3 hour photo ride around Savannah this afternoon, then I had a neighbor poker game. No time to go through the ride pics, but I do want to update the build work pics.
The bike rode great by the way. I could easily stand up on the pedals off the line with these killer handlebars! The bike was a hit with the tourists too.
So anyway back to the build work.
The sissy bar rods are a smaller diameter that the frame mid tubes that they slide into. I used electrical tape with slivers of angle shims to dampen it at the front and wedge it in place at the rear.
Then I used allen set screw to secure it to ends of the tubes

Man I just got an INTERNAL SERVER ERROR from the forum trying to upload a photo. I sure hope this is a temporary thing.
