my projects
little while back I figured out that I really didn't like putting the video camera in the tank bag or if at the track duct taping it to the tank so I found a piece of metal that pretty much was already the shape I wanted and put some holes in the bottom part so they would match up with the bolts that hold the steering damper to the upper triple clamp. I do not use the video camera to do anything but record the video so the angle of the camera doesn't matter.

I've got some ideas about how I want to mount it but haven't figured out what materials to use yet. http://i62.photobucket.com/albums/h8...wcamera002.jpg |
I've also got a few ideas about some different exhaust. I can't afford to buy those aftermarket ones so I'm trying to figure out how to make them myself cheaper.
here's my rendition of the A&R mod. I used these baffles out of leftovers from a cruiser exhaust kit http://i62.photobucket.com/albums/h8...project006.jpg I had to add a little to it to make it long enough so I wouldn't have to cut the cans down. http://i62.photobucket.com/albums/h8...oject001-1.jpg reusing the packing from the stock can and some stainless steel zipties http://i62.photobucket.com/albums/h8...oject004-1.jpg got it pop riveted back together and... http://i62.photobucket.com/albums/h8.../garage002.jpg I'll get them installed later, too cold in the basement right now and with a few inches of snow on the ground I'm not going riding. but it's supposed to hit 65 by the end of next week. |
another exhaust idea I had was to do a dual low mount after finding a set of Z1000 exhaust where I used to work.
http://i62.photobucket.com/albums/h8...project001.jpg http://i62.photobucket.com/albums/h8...project002.jpg got it cut down and sand blasted. http://i62.photobucket.com/albums/h8...oject009-1.jpg http://i62.photobucket.com/albums/h8...oject008-1.jpg I'm still looking for someone that has a cat pipe I can get pretty cheap because I think I'm going to have to cut it and change the exit angle to get the pipe to come out at the right area. |
I've also got another exhaust project that's in the idea stage still. may end up doing something completely from scratch instead of using the stock parts that I have but it's going to be sorta like a GP style when it's done.
going to try to use the stock parts first, cut and weld these to come up through the stock place and have a dual exit. http://i62.photobucket.com/albums/h8...oject002-1.jpg http://i62.photobucket.com/albums/h8...oject003-1.jpg |
another project was for the license plate holder. we had some left over parts from a crash job so I figured I'd use them.
