sportster points cover

made a points cover out of some copper sheet laying around at work. cut it to size, beat it with a ball peen hammer on the backside. flipped it over, pressed it flat. then i put it in a bowl of vinegar and salt for a few minutes. pulled it out, let it dry, then buffed out the high spots. repeat like 3 more times, drill holes for mounting- done. i think it looks good, too bad there are no actual points in there.

made some wooden foot peg inserts for my front pegs. kind of a fail- too thin to screw down and slippery when wet. back to the drawing board.

sportster mods

made some doo dads for my sporty. shortened my front fender- 4" front and back. now it looks a little too high above the tire. when i get some time i will take it down to get it right on the tire. im thinking about an inch will do.
wood points cover. lm not sure what kind of wood i used. it was in the scrap bin at work. put some motor oil on it to help show off the grain. i think it looks good.

i won't bore you with pics of my bike other than the things i do to it myself to make it mine. it's my daily rider so it is mostly stock and i'm gonna keep it chill till i finish a couple of my other projects. priorities man. so light mods that keep it as a daily runner. gotta have at least one bike i can get on and ride when i want to and have to.
