Thanks Hawg08.. how about a boot guard for your SG?

I never thought of selling them though, just that it looked pretty good for what I was wanting. Honestly, after comparing the two, I think yours is just a bit oversized. As far as the 300# pull stainless steel, I wasn't planning to use it to tow anything with. Good luck with your bell hanger design, though.

If you would have picked up my bell hanger... I figure I should point out my boot guard.
I finished the rider boot guard for my SG just a couple of weeks ago. I am still working on the passenger's for the left side where the pipe goes vertical behind the primary for the foot peg. Design pretty much finished, I just have to laser it and have it chromed. I have pics on my web site with the rider guards mounted on my SG www.bitchin-guard.com click the button the left "photos of guards on bikes.. go to touring.

Thanks,
Doug

My solution for a place to hang the bell

I just punched a hole in one of the bolts that holds the footboard on the right side of the bike and threaded the keyring through the hole.

Most of the guys that I ride with have a bell. There's even one guy that has the Domino's Noid!

If you consider this question to be a "technical issue" that requires posting on a forum, then you shouldn't be riding a Harley. in fact, you almost better avoid riding motorcycles altogether or stick to a small Honda.

The Bell ought' to come with instructions that if you don't get it hung on your bike in less then 5 minutes, you are cursed for life.

Here's two of mine, another on the front. Can't have too many yano. Damn, I thought you could see them in this pic. Anyway, one is hanging from fender support and the other from bag support. The third from front foot board.
