Oh, the brass is just a sheet like a door kick plate. I was going to use it to cover my battery. The original cover is missing a tab and the spring on the pin so it falls off. I plan to use the copper plate for the flanges and depending on how much is left and where the holes line up, I'll use...

Wahoo payday! We got new helmets for myself and Mrs. Bug: and a $42 trip to the scrap yard yielded this haul: That's a 1' x 2' piece of brass sheet with the plastic protection still on, a piece of 4" piping with a cap for the plenum, various piecesof 1" pipe with 90* elbows, a roughly 5'...

Darn When I first decided to go copper, the down tubes and exhaust were prime targets, but I still hadn't figured out how I would attach them to the heads. Your method works quite nicely, I might have to try something similar. Payday is Friday, we'll have to see what I can find in the scrap...

The side panels didn't come out quite the way I wanted them, so I'm going to re-paint them. When they're done, the riveted straps will go all the way down them too. And here's where she sits today! Ya, I'm kinda nervous myself when I ride it to work...

Somewwhere in that mess, i had jacked up the front end and while it was free, I found out the steering head bearings were crap. So I replaced them and threw on a set of drag bars. Time for more copper! I broke out some more fun creativity with the next bit of copper. I got a pair of brake/tail...
