hey guys i'm thinking of making a tray to go under my seat where the cowl is gonna be I wanna have a tray basically for my battery to sit on and to screw my coils and wiring into, but I have no one who can weld that I know of around here, so i'm wondering if JB weld would work to secure a plate to my frame and would be able to hold a battery ?
I'm gonna head to the gather and see if I'll be able either bolt some L shaped brackets to the frame or see if i can cut and bend some metal to bolt into the frame I'll post some pics tonight or tomorrow when I figure it all out, thanks guys
Hmmmm. I know chrome ones are used on motorcycle exhausts (JCWhitney has them for sure, probably plenty of places do too) but if you find TwistedWheels's build thread, he made some from aluminum for headlight brackets.
Look in the plumbing or electrical section, you can probably find something meant to hold up conduit or pipe in a suitable size. Plan B is to head to the hardware section to get some steel or aluminum and make it from scratch.
tons and tons and tons of ideas! they have stuff I've never even heard of, they have tons of fastener solutions just looking for a problem, probably one for yours
P-clamps are hard to find in larger sizes (at least I haven't found them yet) but they are easy to find on eBay. By the time you've found some locally you'll be able to have them mailed to you. Measure the tube size and get a pack.
They're typically stainless steel with a rubber layer to protect your frame. Will work perfectly most likely.
Okay So the P Clamps..well AWESOME idea! haha htatnks a ton
I got the plates mounted and prety m uch ready for wiring
I actually only bought 4 and i needed two more clamps and they were really easy to make I even found some extra rubber lying around to make them all match!
thanks for the help guys ill upload some better pics of the actuall tray design later
I see a trucklite grommet there falconer is right next to my home town. With as many light and grommets that place pumps out a year you should see the shop its this little run down building the shop that I work on truck in is bigger than that place.
hahaha yeah that gromet was attached to a light untill like last week and i was starring at it going wow this wood look good, so i pushed the light out traced the hole, cut it out...popped it in and it looked awesome! Im waiting on an order of parts for the bike today, pod filters, crank case breather filter, Clip ons, and head light clamps!
