cool!

where'd you find that groovy top clamp???

[ProTeal55]

Nice muffler -Dynomax bullet ?

That seat- is it just a stocker cut down? And where'd that tail light com from?

[cbjunkie]

a harley taillight, i think...

[comcrx]

the top clamp was a leftover from my bikes previous life as a chopper(or so I was told) when I got it there was a fake harley logo on it, but that got yanked off quick

the seat is the stock pan but thats it, a hell of a lot less foam and the pleats were sewn into the top of it. I kept the pan stock to be able to use the hinge & latch

proteal, you are correct sir

the tail light I think is a copy from old 50's bobbers, also known as limp sausage cause it kinda looks like a flaccid penis

Sorry I'm obsessing- so where'd the light come from? It looks perfect on that bike.

I really like the look of that shaved down seat.

They`re called Sparto lights, here`s a couple links.

That is a cool taillight. How is it as far as brightness and visibility? Can you see it as well as the stock light?

I have seen those tail lights in both a standard dual fillament bulb setup - as well as LED versions...
I know Custom Chrome sells a black powdercoat one as well...

[comcrx]

yep, I got the light from dennis kirk. I think I remember the package saying drag specialties, wasn't much money, like 30 bucks or something
the black would would look sweet too

jeff, as far as brightness and visibility, it lights up, thats about all I can say. you definitely can see it, but the surface area of the light isn't that big

thanks for the compliments guys
