    AND then this. This will allow me to screw the peg on after the frame has powder. Yeah the peg is aluminum but hey when it looks like crap from riding I'll just find another set of grips to modify and put in its place!
    I'm doing the whole bike in this fashion. I should probably put up a build thread so yall can see the whole deal coming together. Its backyard building not pro building I know. But when I'm riding down the road I'll be real proud to have that "I Built Mine" shirt on my back!

        Thanks for the posts guys! It's cool to see how creative you can get with random shit laying around the shop. I prefer homemade parts over store bought any day. It's easier on the pocket and you can take pride in knowing that you made it yourself. Besides, that is what sets your bike apart from the rest.

                  good job building your own stuff fella's!
                  we do need a build thread on the cbx chop,that should freakin kick ass.
                  here is a forkbrace,a brake master cylinder bracket,exhaust, front frame and forward controls,and my first attempt at a seat, that i built for a blast i am chopping up.i took a spin around the mile section last night(no headlight or tail light or rear brake,i know stupid but fun) and it made all the work seem worth it somehow :-O !
                  thanks for postin the pics guys keep hammerin,sawin,grindin,and sandin and show us the pics.

                    made a floating exhaust bracket for my rear drag pipe. old set up had a rigid
                    mount that would work harden & fracture after a few thousand miles. figured
                    I'd had enough of that after 3 rewelds (last 10k miles).
                    now the pipe can expand & grow when it heats up without causing stress on the welds.
                    at least that's what I'm hoping.

                      I cast this in the foundry and welded it to the brake pedal.

                            Creativity and application are all the same in fabrication.....whether is fondant or steel or plastic or paint....

                                At least they aren't creating rehashed threads so we have to tell them to try the search function.

                                Sent from my bunghole, for which there is no TP.
