|  My other Wife! I am still a little new to the forum so I thought I would say Hello to all and show my ride. http://  [/IMG]http://  [/IMG]Here are the end caps that I metioned in my other post.I also have four small ones located in the license plate. http://  [/url]I am looking to buy a windshield for her but I can't seem to commit to one there are so many.I have looked at getting one that is smaller than a stock shield,I believe the name of it was a Memphis style.If any one has any pics of there bike with a shield I would love to see it.Or any input on a shield would love to hear. Thanks Last edited by RavageM50; 01-07-2007 at 07:38 PM. |

  | Nice bike. I like the mods and you have. Makes it look mean.

| Well I made them at work on my spare time,really didn't think of making any to sell.Not sure have to think about it.If enough people sound interrested I might start making them.The only issue would be if guys had the same insert in there handlebars.I had to make each side a different length(bolt that is). The next set I am going to make will have grooves in between the holes,sort of like the grooves on a revolver cylinder.I am sure those will look a lot better these where just a starting point. My next project envolves making turn signal housings.I am going to make them enclosed with a tube with holes in it.Sort of like a heat shield on a Sten. Have it powder coated black with some chrome highlights.  The smaller caps that are on the license plate I am going to make a housing and insert some LEDS in it and hook them up to my brake lights.When I made them I had a small mag light with a red lens I put behind the cap and it really looked sweet,so I figured hey that would look awesome as brake lights.Of course leaving existing light.I think little touchs can really make a bike stand out.  |

We'll first let me try and get a diagram of the internal fits of the end caps and inserts etc..And I will post them on here and you can see if they match what you have.I will also take a pic of my stock end caps and you can compare them to yours they might be the same.This might save you shipping $$$.If the pics don't work then maybe ship them.Let me know what you think,I won't be able to post anything until tomorrow at this same time.The end caps are at work in my box.Plus you might wanna wait until you see the other ones I am going to make.They will basically be the same but on these I am going to use a ball nose endmill on the flats and put some grooves on every other hole.Kind of hard to explain.I am wanting them to resemble a revolver cylinder.We'll probably hard to picture,but I am hoping to have them done by the end of the week,so I will post pics this weekend.

| Hey! Just came across this post. VERY NICE! Love the end caps on the grips and the 2 into 1 exhaust! I'm thinking about going to a 2-1 in the spring, what brand is that and how do like it? How's the sound, price, install, etc. ?
