Xtremelow's War Horse Build Start to End

[StealthyMosquito]

Looking good, Really dig the single headlight.

 

[twoguns]

i like the offset... i woudlnt have offset it quite so much though, but should look good.


hahaha... all i am thinking now is painting a headlight beazel round the headlight and a 'closed wink look beazel' for hte other side.

So can i have your CF headlight bezels now?

 

[xtremelow]

Sold them, worked out for me since I basically traded them for a Select seat [up]

 

[xtremelow]

Made something up at work yesterday, needs to have the threaded area milled down another 1/8" and it will be set for powder coat. Figured after laying my bike down last time and having the seat rail get ground to hell these would be a great add on.

Looks like something alot of lightning guys would like to buy. Great Idea[up]

 

[Hammel13]

yea +1 with what mattyxb9r said. I think you could make a good chunk of change on that idea.

 

[2004xb12s]

i would buy

 

[xtremelow]

The idea is not mine I don't remember who made them but another member did them up sort of the same but skate board wheels a couple years ago.

Not looking to mass produce I am to picky and they would take me to long to make.

Here is what I am trying to prevent. See the rail.

I like the single headlight, but will you then only have either a low beam or a high beam? are you able to set one bulb up to do both? I assume firebolts are the same as the lightnings where only one light is on at a time.

Tattoo72 from Voodoo Mufflers made some for his bike. I tried to get him to make me a set but nothing ever became of it.

I assume firebolts are the same as the lightnings where only one light is on at a time.

With bolts, both headlights are on when you kick the high switch. Pretty much the same headlight and everything the only real difference is the little "spoon" that does the cut off pattern on the low beam.

 

[xtremelow]

I am going to run an HID light so I will have low and high beams

 

[xtremelow]

Well, ended up being the crank sensor was tilted within the timing cover. Pushed it in were it was supposed to go, started right up (even though I forgot to put the front spark plug back in) Just need to get it bolted up properly sort of had it rigged since one of the stock bolts snapped off and I thought one would be good enough, obviously not.

Here is the first video of it running I will post another during the day as soon as I get a chance[up]

 

[DustyXB]

Sounds good man.[up] Glad it's almost done! Can't wait to actually see the bike all together and in some light.



Out of curiosity, what gauge are your ears?

 

[onelogue]

Hell ya! Great video up date x!

Out of curiosity, what gauge are your ears?

Not big enough! I think I probably hold the record for that on this site. I was at 1.25" before I took the jewelry out. Now, 2 years later, I still have big saggy lobes with enough space to comfortably fit 0.75" jewelry.

 

[xtremelow]

^^^ Just the reason I am not going any bigger with my ears. I have 5/8" plugs, I can take them out for 30min and the holes shrink to the same size as a pencil. They stretch back out but I had them almost this big back in 2001 before I joined the USMC and after 3 months they looked normal.

Not a fan of saggy lobes so 5/8" is plenty big enough. Probably wear them for a while longer then take them out once I get bored of them[smirk]

Octo bet I have you on this though, I had a 00g barbell in my tongue wore it for a couple weeks then figured I gauged it to the size I wanted then took it out. Now I hate tongue piercings, LOL

My friend used to have his ears gauged pretty big, but when he was done with them he had to actually have his lobes sewn back shut.
