here are a few cell phone pics of it.
i guess this is what happens when your bike is just sitting for too long... you start cuting things.

Hey dude! Looks nice! Looks like you used my template?
yeah pretty much used yours as a guide...the way i did the folds on mine are a little different.
i woulda just bought one from you if i were not so freakin poor haha.
but i had fun making it so thats a plus.
You may want to angle your plate a bit more. It looks like one bottoming out of your shock and your plate will hit the rubber.
Looks good Richard!

+1! lots of people have had that happen
Mucho Nice [thumbsup] So when do we get to see it?!?
im hoping to make it out to the next lunch or something [drink]
hey el matador,
what gauge metal do you use to make your brackets?
i think what i used to make this might be a little too thin and flimsy, i used 26g i think, and after riding it about 50 miles with the weight of the lights and plate it kinda made it sag a bit.
might remake one with thicker metal or just beef this one up somehow.

I use 16 gauge. It makes it a lot harder to bend, but there is a certain trick to it. Pm me for my digits if you want me to walk you through the process of doing it...
cheers!
