Just with regular hand tools. Started with some raw aluminum 11/2" stock and cut with a dremel tool into the stock teardrop shape. I then used a 17/64th drill to create a hole big enough to run the stock 8mm thread through.The hardest part was the shaping of the stock into the teardrop.Start with a "v" cut then slowley work the stock till the edges are smooth,drill your hole then polish the **** out of it.It obviously doesnt have the rubber insert but then again the stockers cant get the high polish that raw aluminum stock can get.The whole cost was 13.50 for the stock(a foot) and about 6hrs....good luck...J

I used a flat 1" bar and bent an offset on it so I could bolt it to the top

parts unlimited? I found some at www.bikebandit.com but they want $38 for them and I also need radiator mounts but they have been discontinued

I know you check ebay I'm sure but thats the best place to find that stuff. Id just try and make all that stuff because even on ebay those pieces can sell for what seems like ridiculous prices for such small components.
