what are guy guys using for the tubing size wise, and where could i get ahold of some, i have all the tools needed to make one, and i cant afford to go buy one, so i need some guidance and tube sizing, ect to make my own....


ect, are you using crom-moly or what, and where can i get it?

 

nevermind, i found the perfect material....

for those of you wanting to build your own...
go to lowes/home depot, go to plumbing section, the have 3/4" steel pipe used for running gas lines, i is extreamly strong, so you will have to find a hydralic bender, but they got eveything there you may need.

total cost for all supplies-$32
bending-$5.00 (elecrtic store)
welding $15 hr, total 1 hr
hardware-$5.00
rubber end caps-$6.00

total spent-$63.00

powder coating$50

total investment-less than 120, which is almost the same price as some peoples 12 bars!!!

 

Well lets see some pics, duh

 

dont have it right now, it is being finshed at the welder, then i have to get it over to the powder coating place, they told me they have some stuff they are going to do in a few days, if i drop it off to them, they will get it back asap, and i gotta get my bike finished soon, so i can go to florida stunt wars...

i will post up some pics in a few days if you can wait that long

 

i was going to weld some sliders on my 1992 GSXR 750 but i got no where to weld them. if i put them on the frame above the fairing it will be to high. any ideas of where i should attach them. i got a very blurry picture but u can make out where the frame is an there is nothing to weld onto below? has anyone had the same problem and they worked out how to overcome it?

 

your welder's working for 15 an hr? i'd be a lil sketchy about that

 

 

hope to see pics soon !

 

to f'm late now, i done messed my bike all up...might as well go ahead and do something else while im waiting....

paitence is a virtue, had i wated till i got my cage, my plastics would be in tackt!!!
