Title: New stuff on my old ride
Post by: Curtis_Valk on October 09, 2007, 08:25:48 PM
I know this is not Magna specific, but when you get a new farkle you've just gotta crow about it to someone and ya'll are my friends!  8)

New radiator bar grill.

Like that new grill. It blends well without over powering the look.

The Magna chrome grills look nice but not the look I am looking for.

Don't matter if it's not magna related, that looks nice.

Looks great!  I would LOVE to have one like that for my Project 96!

OK, if you make two of the chrome grills for a Magna would that make a mass production, to lower the price.

That does look good, Curtis. I wish the ones currently available for the 3G Magnas looked that good: the radiator could be a visual asset. :roll:  Crow away, sir.

Bob, only the finest salmon will be cooked on that grill.  Or maybe a bug or two.

Actually Curtis it would make more since to use it for road kill! Think of all the money you could save on a long road trip. With your riding skills you wouldn't even have to stop..:D  :D  :D  :D

The horizonal bars blend nicely with the horiznal lines of the covers below it. I had to look twice to figure out why it looked so good. Kinda reminds you of the tube and the bar grills on the custom cars from a few years back. I still like the look. What is the update on the chrome swing arm project?

The swing arm is still on hold.  The Valk is up on the jack and will most likely remain there until it is installed.  If other obligations get in the way at least I can work on it a little at a time.  Oh, the advantages of two bikes and a dedicated work space!  :D  8)  :D

I'll be sure to wash her and post up some good pics when I'm done.

Looks good Curtis.
BTW thanks for the gloves, I love them! and I discovered  yesterday that they do not bleed like other black gloves, I got soaked but there was no black dye on my hands at the end of the trip from the rain soaking.
Thanks!!!

Glad the gloves are working for you.  I bought them in Hill City S.D. so I guess you have a souvenier from my trip! LOL  I like a thin glove, especially in the palm area so the jell just didn't work for me.  That's rare to find a pair of gloves that don't bleed in the rain.
