[QUOTE="Kansas Bad Man, post: 51482, member: 778"] I don't understand why some like the 30s approach to the bag mounts over the 50s. It appears that a serious of bent tubing that more or less keeps in the tradition of the thinking of B forks ,A/B head light brackets, rear and front stands A/B , all RFMs , fender stays and grab handle. All are to much to buzzy in appearance to present a first glance good look to the eye ,or at least that is my take. Why not go with the round sculptured look of the bike such as the rear casting of the hinge, mag cover, C/D fork legs, C/D engine covers, C/D 5 inch speedo, and the most impressive of shapes, the gas tank on the B/Cs and Ds. I can envision a three piece bolt together polished aluminum casting in the tradition of the rear fender hinge that would be period and stunning in appearance. Dawning Helmut and flack jacket.
