im having the guy make some engine guards too out of that same tubing
so that adds another week now that he has my bike
Not sure if I will get any finished pics from the racks or if he is going to wait until everything is made and finished

But if it looks as nice as the rear racks it will be worth the extra wait
and should look nice too, it wont have a skidplate just side engine protection

 

Cool looking forward to seeing it up on his site, I'm not a fan of sissy bars but if it's removable then I can see the function of it.

 

got him to make these too but he said they are very time consuming
not sure if he is going to sell them, but I think they are sick

I can say he has some talent, they look great

 

picking up the bike tuesday!!

 

Got the bike back today
everything looks real nice
I was told there are 2 other racks he is making that will be wider then what I have



The top rack is pre drilled for the rotopax gas tank mount





Had a little hard time getting the helmet on, I may pick up a extension for the strap
or may not will have to see if I get quicker at mounting it
I do understand if I had bags on the racks most likely wont be able to mount the helmet anyways so keep that in mind


The side racks use the plastic bodywork mounting points, so take that into consideration when loading them up.



I had him make me a set of engine guards too
hopefully he will be selling these, no skidplate uses stock
Great for adding axillary lights
One little issue on the brake side the tip of my shoe hits the guard when placing foot on brake lever. Nothing to cause you not to brake, just surprised me the first time it happened. Deciding weather or not to slightly bend out brake lever or just live with it.

At least it does provide protection even the clutch lever side

 

great...can i get some straight side pictures..i want to see if the engine guards actually block any thing...how does it bolt on?...i love the look of everything...

 

too dark outside
so here are some low light shots
looks far enough away from the oil filter, and I can get to both screws
thats all im concerned about
not sure with the flywheel side
anything else probably have to remove the guard

 

looks perfect...i just wanted to make sure i can do all my regular maintenance without having to remove it...looks like i can do the valve check without any problems...did he mention a price?...i'm from san diego, so i can go pick it up...

 

only price I heard, which isnt set in stone was the engine guards

anything else I dont know but looking at his site and all the other ones he makes I would think around those prices

 

Wow, impressive! When I saw the rough shots I was a little skeptical. But man after seeing the finished product I want that. What do you think he's going to retail the rear setup for?
