The fun oart is that if you Google Lux Machine, the first site that pops up is a hair salon. Seems fitting.

I just saw the new DCC speedo gauge bracket from Lux. It's about a $2 piece that will probably cost $25. The headlight shield is about the cheesiest thing I've seen in awhile.

I do it the "right" way... I make an "x" with electrical tape like the true café and bobber racers did back in the day.

"X" marks the Loser!?!

 

[carnivorous chicken]

I find that if I completely cover the entire surface of the headlight in black electrical tape I get the look I am going for and take no chances with anything hitting and cracking the light or with stray bits of glass flying off and getting under my tires.

 

[Tune-A-Fish]

I mask it off and spray the black on so it stays... it is just for looks right?

DCC just generally sucks.

Won't it hover on snow now?

Ever rode in one of those? It hovers, but loud and not very practical. The thing failed terribly.

Put a yanmar and two skid steer sled tracks on it and go!

Haha, I'll dig up a pic. We made one years back that ran on a leaf blower. It was pretty sweet!

Oh, you mean something like this:

Tell me this isn't photoshopped onto the snow background.



What's that you say, you don't ride dirt, you ride a chopper. Then you need one of these. I'm sure they handle much better in the snow than they do on the road:
