I think this would be something good to talk about on here. I what to here about bike parts you've built instead of buying. Let's see how creative this forum is I personally rather make it than buy like the seat pins and exhaust now what do I make? |

I made some scuff marks on my clutch cover and radiator pod. That is about the limit of my craftiness. ![: (](http://www.badweatherbikers.com/buell/clipart/sad.gif) |

I did a tail tidy from 6061 aluminum. It's not the best looking in the world, but it's a one-off fab job. |

I made heel guards, bracket to hold my power outlet, brackets to adapt my PitBull stand to my non spool 1125, seat pins. Not had a lot of time for this one. |

Blower1 those are some impressive performance oriented mods. Did you notice any difference in power or sound? |

@ Mountainstorm The exhaust end tip made a slightly more sound, but not more power. The velocity stacks made more torque (I think), because now my bike makes high power wheelies in 2# gear. The longer front header I havenīt test yet. During the next months Iīm going to take my R to the dyno and test the all modifications. |

I made a tailsaver for my 636 stuntbike. Used a peice of thick gauge sheet metal, cut and shaped it how I wanted....I fabbed up an undertail exhaust out of my old 1125 D&D on an 05 636. It was interesting to say the least lol. Super loud too, that pipe sounds even worse on a 4cyl bike. |
