Dunno what the hell sort of pipes you're putting on that thing, but at that price it better be a collaboration effort between Jesse James and the ghost of Indian Larry! :| Have you checked JP Cycles yet??

I fabbed my own out of 1/8" steel, 3/16" flat stock (for reinforcing straps) and a gate hinge... Came out alright, and only cost me around 20 bucks........




With seat springs, probably 30 bucks. This piece was my very first rust bluing attempt. The pics were taken pre-initial boil, so it's all brown with rust. Originally I was going to spray-glue some regular car seat foam to it and then shape it with a bread/electric/hot knife, then wrap it with junk leather scraps rough-stitched together with rawhide and a big fat bone needle for a total Leatherface look... Had everything ready, but the seat rusted so nice and uniformly that I just HAD to try rust bluing... I may yet still do the Leatherface seat eventually... And yes, those are REAL .50BMG foot pegs.

Also, the most expensive piece I've put on this bike, hands-down, is the taillight:



:D


Yep... But then again, I've always found more entertainment in building it yourself, instead of just bolting a bunch of random catalog bullcrap to it... Maybe because I'm also a broke m.f. and can't do like you rich guys and just say "I want that" and just toss it on...

I really REALLY hope you don't mean a car floor jack.... Have you tried Harbor Freight?
