Nice bike and being BMW probably will sell for a lot more than I'd pay for it, that's why I've never had a Beemer even though I've always thought it would be nice to have one. If I ever got serious about a BMW airhead, I'd look at R90's, lot more power, but doesn't weigh much more.

Thanks Lou. I agree. Thing is, I can't find what I want made by someone else anyway. This was a design Cheryl came up with based on other sconces we saw. Those were much smaller and looked like flimsy $500 a piece Chinese junk. Same deal with our bathroom cabinet. For $1000 we could get something made of Hamster litter shavings pressed together with glue with a .000008 mm thick plastic, "wood look" veneer. I made mine from solid Oak. You could set the love of your life on it for a romantic bathroom interlude and it will not come off the wall. I'm telling ya!

thanks Bob.....it'll be a winter project.....right now I just have metal romex coming out the wall to a contractor grade light socket.........so this set up will hide the romex and I can shitcan the the light socket.
