Post A Picture of Your Thumper

[QUOTE=alfabc;586036]Where did you get the braces from? I'd be interested in seeing a better picture, and knowing where to get them.

Cheers,

I cut them from a piece of alu flat bar - probably 1/2"x1/16", and drilled the hole in the perspex, mounted with a rubber grommet (to stop cracking). The other end is mounted to an indicator panel screw, with a spacer (nylon nut) to get out of the reccess.
The stock lower, center bolt mounts into the plastic housing and is not very firm, the braces stop it flexing there.

Do you have to listen to the Rolling Stones as you paint it??? :groovy

hehehe... I'm torn between doing it myself... and paying for it to be done professionally (the paint job that is). my CS was just rattle can blacked... that "fusion" stuff krylon makes.

for the pin striping I'm sure I can handle it w/some white/reflect tape in approximate (varying) widths. not sure what I'll listen to when I do that. maybe changes by Bowie? :wow

On the way home from Alaska I found the source of happiness for the world's beer lovers.:brad

First solo ride....1600 miles in 3 days:) Up to open the cottage in Ontonagon, MI. A staff member at the Big Mac bridge rode my bike over. Second trip I rode...on the grate. Did not care much for the experience but worth it to ride the UP:)

The Bridge is an experiance. But you are right - the UP is a great ride BTW - Happy Birthday!

Algonquin Provincial Park, Ontario. My trip around Lake Ontario in Summer 2009.

Here is a shot of my ride at the Dallas National Cemetary....
