So it was like Christmas today! First off, Stites has the wrong information about me......

Next, unwrapping the billet beauties revealed that the bushing holes fit perfectly and the spacing was right on!





Thanks again Scott!

So lots got done this weekend. Got the cush drive mounted, spacer for it made, clutch push rod extension made, clip ons cut, Indian head light made, headlight mount made using only a hack saw, drill press, and file, sprocket carrier disc made (mostly), and my "holy" bolt for my mom (who has passed). So here are the pics:

Headlight and mount.



Clutch push rod extension for the Ducati slave.

Cush drive mounted. Looks freakin' fantastic. Cut a .250" rear spacer for it.


Sprocket carrier disc. Need some rotary vise work done....need to contract that out.




Holy bolt..... Antique St. Christopher medal cut into the center of the stem bolt until is is flush. Will re-chrome the bolt & nut, then seal it all together.


That is it for now...time for bed.

Chrome don't get ya home, but it does give you something nice to look at while you are waiting for a tow truck..... Just got it back from a new chromer I am using. Took less than 24hrs and he only charged me $20.

Looks great! Would you mind revealing your new chrome shop? I'm always looking for somewhere good but reasonably priced. Seems to be getting harder and harder to find with all the EPA stuff.

So just a quickie.....this is very "roughed in" and will need quite a bit of finishing yet. However, can you guess what it is and where it is going? Should be easy.....


Going to see how it looks first before spending anymore time on it.....

Frame bracket for a steering stabilizer if you're making us guess.

EDIT: Fork bracket of some sort since it has 43mm machined into it.
