Those look cool, laser. Can you tell us more about them? Price, source, quality of construction?

 

[DTR 11TG]

Mike, what about the finish under bra, every bra I've seen(car or bike) wears bad on the paint. Are you worried about that?

 

[vettriker68]

I really liked the idea of using the fender bra but I found hd bra will mark the paint even when you take them off at every cleaning

 

[Lazermanmike]

They are molded fiberglass they can be mounted with 3M doublestick tape or velcro or bolted. They do not touch the fender as there is a rubber grommet.I am very happy with mine. Mine are bolted using lighted amber LED 5/16 bolts.

Lazer,

Thanks very much for posting Ross' contact info. I sent him an e-mail this morning.

Would you mind posting some additional pics of your installation? I'd especially like to see the amber LEDs lit up.

 

[DTR 11TG]

Thanks for that info Mike, that sounds like a great set-up.

didn't look at your photos, i thought you were talking about the hd bra. yours looks like a better idea

 

[rossvt]

Thanks
I will be posting more pictures of the mounting after the 4TH.
I am also looking for other people in minesota ( or close to ), with other trike brands for making more variety in part selections.

Thanks for all the great emails. rehoeft@yahoo.com

Ross, Are you limited to the the size & shape like those on Mike's or can changes be made. I have thought about something like a bra, but would never have done it because of what it does to the paint. Yours is a great idea, I like them more than even the clear stick-on stuff, but I'm just not quite ready to pull the trigger on a set. Might change the mind real quick after first few chips :AGGHH:

 

[ReRoll]

I've been considering the clear plastic-ey type that are used on some expensive cars. I know of a place that does this work on almost any vehicle.

 

[rossvt]

The guards can be made in other sizes. The guards are made to cover from the marker light down to about 2" past fender about 2" around the side . they can be made smaller as needed, I am looking at making 2 sizes Mikes, being the larger size and ones about 8" to 10" for smaller ones. Custom sizes are not out of the question.

 

[DTR 11TG]

Thanks for the different size info, will contact you as soon as I make my mind up or get that first big mark.

 

[rossvt]

The sizes are still to be decided but i can make the bra's 24" high and 1.5" past the side pinstripes on Mike's bike. and can be made smaller. they can also be cut to a profile , so it could have ovel , stright, square, spikes etc, on edges. Also raised contures, flames ,letters etc.
the fancer stuff would be custom and cost would reflect that. So you can be protected and still look original.
