Asteroid field, got it. That would make more sense. Kinda seems like the Imps would put 2+2 together though if they board a suspected smuggler and suddenly the space surrounding his ship is occupied by shipping crates, no other ships around for a couple of light years...
BTW, sorry to hijack your thread about the bars, but then again, I never miss a chance to talk about Star Wars or illicit smuggling activities, plus, you did kinda ask for it...

Yea you need to look at this by letter of the law and han solo's quick keen decision making skills.
As for the bars they seem awesome, I may be a little scared of em on a springer though. But a hydraulic front end and a good set of risers I see them riding pretty well

Greedo: [In Huttese; subtitled] Going somewhere, Solo?
Han Solo: Yes, Greedo. I was just going to see your boss. Tell Jabba I've got his money.
Greedo: It's too late. You should have paid him when you had the chance. Jabba's put a price on your head so large, every bounty hunter in the galaxy will be looking for you. I'm lucky I found you first.
Han Solo: Yeah, but this time I've got the money.
Greedo: If you give it to me, I might forget I found you.
Han Solo: [stealthily going for his blaster] I don't have it with me. Tell Jabba...
Greedo: Jabba's through with you! He has no use for smugglers who drop their shipments at the first sign of an Imperial cruiser.
Han Solo: Even I get boarded sometimes. Do you think I had a choice?
Greedo: You can tell that to Jabba. At best, he may only take your ship.
Han Solo: Over my dead body!
Greedo: That's the idea... I've been looking forward to this for a long time.
Han Solo: Yeah, I'll bet you have.
[Han blasts Greedo, then heads out, tossing the bartender a coin]
Han Solo: Sorry about the mess
20 minutes later....
Luke: Boy, it's lucky you have these compartments.
Han Solo: I use them for smuggling. I never thought I'd be smuggling myself in them. This is ridiculous.

Hmmm. I've never read that book. Kind of makes sense.
But I always pictured the Imperial recruits as more of a Gestapo operation. It's apparent in the uniforms, accents of key characters, Storm Troopers, etc.
Like it would go down like this;
Imperial Boarding party; "Papers, cargo manifest, and destination please Mr. Solo."
Han Solo; "Yeah... I'm just making the Kessel run, dude. No cargo.. Trying to see how fast I can do it in so I can brag to some buds at the cantina on Tatooine."
Imperial Boarding party; "Well that's weird... You see that asteroid field over there? Well there's a lot of Old Spice crates floating about. You don't happen to know how they got there, do you???"
Han Solo; "Ummm... Asteroid field? Weird.... I didn't see one... Crazy! I better watch out for those. They're filled with rocks and shit."
Imperial Boarding party; "Well.. When we first spotted you, you parked it in there and chucked some shit out your space window. We saw you do it and it's on our shield cam."
Han Solo; "I don't know what you're talking about. My ship is empty. You don't have shit on me, bro. Now piss off! I know my Miranda Space Rights..."
Imperial Boarding party; "You know your Space Rights?! YOU DON'T HAVE SPACE RIGHTS!! Lord Vader will Force choke your ass and throw you in carbonite faster than you can say,'I know'.
And tell your tall ass dog to stop fucking eyeballing me! Do I owe you money or some shit?! Fucking speak English, dog. God damn... You sound like a Mexican pinata screaming or some shit."
"Now lock these two clown shoes up in the brig and crush this slow ass ship..."

First off we are talking spice here. So I imagine the whole fucking cargo hold is filled up. Pouring enough out to fit in the secret cargo hold which held a few people would be like bringing Jabba a linkert carb when he wanted 4 complete panheads. Plus if the cargo secret compartment was anything like the toy falcon the cover would tilt if anyone walked on it. The Battery compartment was a far better smuggling area. I used to smuggle yoda in there all the time
Second we don't know if he shot the spice out in the containers or merely jettisoned the spice like a crop duster.
Third the imperial gov't wasn't all the bad. I'm thinking it's a lot like the USA. Play by the rules and all is well, gov't support, a welfare system for those low on credits. But threaten its integrity and it goes into home security law mode and they fuck your ass up. Granted they did blow up a whole planet and enslave wookies.

Hahaha! "a welfare system for those low on credits"
And to your point, they blew up Alderaan! For no reason! Even though it was a peaceful planet!
The Imperial government was definitely 3rd Reich style. Palpatine was Hitler, Vader was Himmler. General Motti was Claus Von Stauffenberg.
He had to have the spice in containers! That's like carrying cocaine loose in the bed of your truck.

It doesn't matter what the Imperium does...
*Appologies for me and the like minded nerf herder's who have jacked the thread, this is about BAD ASS HANDLE BARS! Yes bad ass handle bars that can be used to stash your stash, or more innocently papers for when the gestapo does pull your card.

living dead. Those are nice bars. They look good and have lots of function... Thank you most of all for making the most awesome thread. If you had titled this someting dumb like "stash your weed and get at it so you can roll a joint while you get pulled over" it would not have been the same. This however was crucial!

Dude, crates? Everybody knows that spice is smuggled in barrel like canisters.
If the jury would please take a look at exhibit 4Q-H8R taken directly from the Millennium Falcon's "space window" cam.

Def way easier then passing a balloon....so if you've ever wanted to be Han Solo....heres your chance!
So how much would a set of these run shipped to 93308?

I sent you a message with some specifics....but they are 120$ with free shipping to CC members.
Here is a set I did for a customer using their specs...
