I had some .120" wall 1" tubing, and 5/8" solid round bar and a downed bike, waiting on parts, so why not make some new bars and sissy bar? I am still learning to TIG tubing, and the welds aren't exactly pretty but they are solid.

We have same interests. Tig welding is great for bike customization. Keep up the good work!

The only “criticism” I’d make is the design. The sharp ends on your bars and the pointed peak of your backrest will become lethal should you ever go arse over tea kettle. Something to consider. They may look cool, but they won’t if you’re impaled upon them after a traffic snafu. :shock:
