Just called Bagger Nation.  Theirs is made overseas too!!! :(  Guess I'll keep the Kuryakyn, buy myself a mini-mill, and start making my own stuff!
I've included a pic of what can be made by hand, by an American craftsperson, myself!


WOW  :o.  That is beautiful!  Do you make belts?  :nixweiss:

Thank you :)  this was my first attempt at a motorcycle saddle, for my board track racer I am building.  I have been doing this for less than a year, I started out with a basic Tandy leathercraft kit I got for my birthday last June.  I haven't tried belts yet, I am currently working on seat skirts for my friends Indian.  Not sure if I want to take it up professionally, I just cant guarantee being able to get these projects done in a timely manner as I do have a full time job and other obligations.

It's only a licsence plate holder.  Does it really matter?  I got way more important things to think about.  :nixweiss:    Besides. The kury is really a nice piece.   :)

lammgrel.

. I'm not putting Chinese made CRAP on my American made motorcycle

I'm not too sure but be carefull with that statement as I believe there are quite a few parts on our Beloved American made Bikes that are made in China.MOCO goes with whatever is the cheapest under the heading  TO STAY COMPETITIVE.

Sadly true Montanakid, it is unfortunate but all manufacturers these days have to use Chinese made parts and components. :(  I just got a "Harley Davidson" Incinerator modular helmet, and while orientating myself to its operation last night I found a big ole' Made in China label inside underneath the liner.

Just a bump to see where you are with the bracket.  sent you a PM.

For all those interested in the back plate I have designed, I would be happy to make them available once I get all the details worked out.  Hopefully in the next month or so after I get my baby back home from her long winter storage about an hour south of here.  That and I figure out what I have in them for material costs.

At this point I am leaning towards not trying to change the curve of the Kuryakyn frame to exactly match the fender, but I will have to wait and see just how far off it is before I can make that call.  And how it looks on the bike without matching exactly.  This later part I may need to enlist the help of all you on here, once I have pics to share.

No thanks necessary... Lots of people in the forum have been willing to help me in the past and I am always happy to help as well.  It looks great and I am glad that you are happy with it.  :2vrolijk_21:

Hey Montanakid..  Glad you like the frame. I hate to agree about the Chinese parts but it is what it is..  Getting back to "those " parts,, check into your voltage regulator.  The inferior ones are on a recall and make sure yours isn't one of them.  Mine went out last week and had to be replaced. At least a liscence plate holder can't leave ou stranded on the side of the road. I'm happy you like the frame tho.  I really like mine when I remember to think about it or even look at it.
