I hear its time for sockets

Post by **ekap1200** » Tue Aug 02, 2022 5:38 pm

Hello all , I have had a few requests for sockets and now that I am a retired old fart I have time to do more. Started on them on Monday. Here is a pic of them in the beginning stages of manufacture. I do have 2 of the 17's in stock.

Well for AirForce,, Chris I have completed step 1 and 2 of your bag-snuggers. And doing other work also. I know how everyone likes pics to look at. Here are a few. Last set of vents are going to Elvis. And I may finally get around to forming the last of the passenger floor board covers. All this in between a front end spring RPL with progressives and a wrecked 550 Kaw Zephyr. And I just wanted to retire on the deck watching the Banana trees grow...

Don't tell Marie he's smoking, he thinks she doesn't know he's been stealing her cigarettes.

A simple aluminum cup that fastens to the front saddle bag seat. Stops the rattle, just secure hand tight and install the locknut.

Best invention to me so far. Great job Gene . They really work well on both my bikes. I showed them to Chris
(Air Force ). I think it inspired him .
