I've been working on this for awhile now and just got it all mounted and wired up. Pretty happy with it. Light is an led from Radiantz.

That's pretty slick. I like it. Few questions:
1. Is the light battery powered?
2. How did you attached it to the swing arm? Belt guard has to be removed in order to mount it?
3. Are you plan to make few more and sell them?
4. Is it street legal?
 
SHAWIIIIIIIIIIIIIIING!

Price please, and you must absolutely make one for me now...

Thank you

Wait, I have an 09, I don't think this would fit...

;)
 
1. Is the light battery powered? no, the wire runs thru the tubes and up the inside of the swingarm

2. How did you attached it to the swing arm? Belt guard has to be removed in order to mount it? I replaced the 2 bolts for the brace with longer ones and and used nyloc nuts to mount the bracket.

3. Are you plan to make few more and sell them? not sure yet. Lots of fabrication not sure anyone would buy them for the time I got into it

4. Is it street legal? Hell no

5. Fit an '09? Not sure, I'd have to and look at the '09's or I could trade you for my '03 and you wouldn't have to worry about it. ;)
 
Looks good evil XB. I dont think private messaging is set up on this site, so I dont mean to hijack this but are you familar with ECMspy. I am in Midland, so I was just curious.

You can answer by email if you want so I dont mess up this thread. [email protected]

Thanks
 
Looks good EVL. And just so you know, If I stopped you, it would just be to check out the cool mods.

:D
 
That is a Awesome plate mount! You get some rep for that. I wish I could get away wit that in California. Cops suck about side mounted plates out here.[sad]
 
looks great!,there was a guy in american-v magazine with a similar thing last month,looks fantastic though ive gotta say[cool]
 
very cool plate mount.. I don't mean to get off topic but I have to ask...your rear sprocket looks to have a machined finish towards the outer perimeter. Is this stock or something you've done. It looks great!

meetch
 
rizoma do a similar thing for some ridiculous amount of money,but thats looks a lovely job!
 
Thanks guys. I appreciate all the compliments. Yeah I hear FL and Cali are pretty strict. I know this local police officer (bitter rod)... I think the MI cops are way cooler than the other states cops ;)

I am thinking about making a few, I just need to come up with a reasonable cost for it. I'll let you guys know what I come up with. I will probably make another and see how much time I have into it.

I did sand the edge off the pulley as LeFox suggested.
 
simple enough... do you have to clear coat or anything like that. Do you notice any corrosion?
