That was the 1st version that I built for him. As you have probably noticed my bike go through alot of changes before I get around to finishing them. This is the bike when he picked it up after I was finished. Found another pic of the shift side.

I'll take some new pics. I have these but it's hard to see whats going on. So I'm not sure how much help they are...?

Sure Jim, When I get out there to finish them up I will take some pics of whats been done so far. And what ever it takes to finish them. I've made several sets in a similar fashion. I always utilize the stock passenger pegs. I like the way the fold up. Makes it easy to walk around the garage...

Thanks Crush for the compliments. Is your Screen name the same on DTT?

Oh shit.. haha sorry. I was like, sheesh, this guy needs to get out more. Ya the T bars are bolted in using the stock rubbers. And bolt on like a pair of harley bars. Super simple to do. And it's clean.

Thanks guys. As far as the Brat thing goes. The bike will be getting a seat that is a little more aggressive here in the near future. The clip-ons I'm not sure where they came from, or from what. They were 36mm, so I just made an adapter to take them down to the stock 34mm, 35mm (cant remember...

Wow... Haven't logged on here in a while! So the 400 has gone through a couple minor changes. More Cafe I guess. Im in the middle of making some rear sets now. nothing to fancy though. Here is how it sits now.

This is very sound advice. Take it...

I used a cb360's tank. Thanks

Most any rearset can be made to fit most any application. Even kits that claim to be "bolt-on" are rarely so. Get creative. Save $. I have used the ones off DTT for $75. fairly unsatisfied, the fit and finish was less than stellar. I had to put a good 3 or 4 hrs into them before they looked and...

Haha.. Ya for sure. I think I went through 6 or 7 Tanks and probably 10 sets of bars before I decided to just make some. Anyway, thanks for all the compliments fella's. Sorry I haven't been around much. Just been busy I suppose? I did get the bike wired. And fit a early 80's XL350 21" front...

Fancy seeing you here... I just signed up here last night, haha Again, Great Job

Thanks again for the warm welcome guys. The air filters are 2 63' triumph tr6 units. The bike is sort of a yamaha/triumph hybrid

650 would kill it with Torque Edit... Sorry, haha seems you guys already discussed that. My bad
