I actually have quite a bit of room above my head and I always wear my seatbelt. I've ran out of things to do to this machine and got a call last week from a guy wanting to sell me his mig welder pretty cheap. You can get an 1 1/4" pipe bender for about $100, I could make a lot of sh** with those two tools, bumpers, doors, cages and it's not hard to do. I did say I was done though...:rolleyes:

Yeah, I worked at a tubing factory out of high school and have several electricians that work for me. Light gauge, heavy gauge, hand bender, power bender... simple sh** with the right tools.

Heck..... I can hook you up with some cooper tubing and fittings....who needs to bend pipe when you have 45's and 90's....LOL....

I do agree with you guys that our bikes would look much cooler with a lower, sleeker profile..... Oh well...I like our Honda.
