Thanks!
I got it on ebay after searching lots of different terms.
It is called a stone guard, and I had to buy a set of them. Thankfully I sold the other one to a member here...
My dad has these on his '57 Corvette. I've always loved them, and it's kind of a nod to the 60's styling.

ask that in the technical board, but first do a forum search so you're not asking questions that have already been asked.
as for this thread, here's a pic I took earlier today:

Yeah, I can't recall what gauge steel I used, but it's overbuilt, heavy and a pain in the ass (literally). I was able to convince the sculpture professor that it was art HAHA! It's was more of a I avoid highway and it's all good

here is one of mine that I took today... i totally got my inspiration from some pics that I found on the internet of MidNightCafe's bike.. did not know you were on here. Thanks for the inspiration, hope I did you proud with my version.
Next up is new tail light as well as new turn signals front and back.

Ok so this is what you were talking about, nice! Only thing I'd change is the rear lights-I bought a ninja taillight for $11 shipped of eBay that matched the trail pretty well. Cheers!

Looking good you guys. Midnight I think you should have a broad sword or mace in you hand in that picture.

here ya go:
it matches the edges okay but you can see there's a lot of dead space underneath. I'm not a metal forming expert and can't produce the contours to make the tail light completely flush (that would be a lot of work for just an $11 taillight!).
Also the lines are rather mismatched along the length of the bike, something I didn't foresee wih building the seat. Good advice is to take a step back and look at the complete picture during the rebuild process.

Very nice! I'd suggest going this route with rearsets, I fabricated my own, and unfortunately had some design interference with the levers and can't equip them :/
