Built a set of bars (Read 13 times)

cFLOW Full Member Offline life is great Posts: 191 Bootheel MO Gender:	Built a set of bars 10/04/07 at 06:26:06 I built a set of custom bars that are pretty basic but I like them. I took some old Z bars I had narrowed and chopped about 4" off the top and added a piece of tubing to the top. it basically a square to give a rough idea of how they look. I will post some pic later to day when I have time.

I ended up cutting the bars up b/c they werent good enough to be on my bike. so no full pics but I have a little pic of the welds . Sorry I didnt take any full pics before i cut them but I have some more fab work to show ever one.

I plan on using the stock tank. I finished the fender tonight. All Tig filler rod and grinding. To be honest i dont really like the finished product but ill have to see it on the bike before I do anything.

I know it seem unrealistic but i know the bike inside out so it was easy. first timers will take longer. That includes boxing and labeling everything Too.
