Show off those custom mid controls!

I know JJ has a thread, but we should have one over here. I'm not talking about stock mids on a stock bike. I'm talking custom shit!


Here's a pic of one setup that I like. I'm trying to figure out the right side. I have normal drags so they're low and somewhat close to the frame.

I made these from some stainless plate, but I pretty much hate them already and will be changing them soon.

I did a fab kevin rear disc brake/caliper set up on my right side shift ironhead. It was pretty easy to do the hydraulic setup when i had forward controls cause i just made an mc mount and welded it to the frame. When I redid my bike I really wanted mid controls. I had to make these from scratch. they don't look professionally made by any means but they were cheap as hell to make and they work well!

That's kind of want I wanna do. I don't think that looks bad at all. If I had to pick at it, the shifter arm could be prettier, but none the less, it looks good!

What mount did you use on the frame for your pegs?

Any pics of the right side?

That looks like a re-purposed Evo sporty mid control mount. I've been thinking of using the later, rubber-mount passenger peg mounts from a sporty as mids. They are pretty nice cast pieces with a flat mounting surface. You might look at one of those for your right side solution.

Yeah I was thinking they look similar to a sporty setup. I would like to see more pics of the mid controls mount that bolt to the floorboard tabs on a shovel frame.

Doesn't a CC member make those?

they are evo generation Dyna peg mounts. Cory Hebert at Maindrive sells a beautiful set up, but I couldn't justify the price.
