Returning Visitors
If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.
If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

I re-used the mounts from an old spit-fire windshield. The black circles at the top corners are part of it. The bottom was shaped to rest on the top of the lower triple tree fork bolts, them zip tied to the tree.
I'll get some pics up of the mounts tomorrow. It snowed today so I took the van.

Well, the wifey is away for the weekend. She took the van, and having the girls here means no riding, so I did the next best thing.
I spent about 3 hours tinkering, adjusting, polishing, shining, buffing, rubbing....:?
Looks pretty good anyhow.
I also relocated my horns from under the tank to the oil cooler mounts. Seems to make a difference in the audibility. I think now that they're visable they should be chrome. :-D
