Chopper roller with mid controls

[gusto]

I got some mid controls going. Brackets from monster craftsman for 30 plus shipping. 3/8 fine thread bolts and washers 5.00 and Amazon pegs for 8.50. I got some fold up pegs too but didn't use them because thought they might turn upside down on me or twist since there's just one bolt. I thought about epoxying them on but just going with static pegs.
Here's a pic of my roller. So far had to grind off the rear brake pivot because it was too small for stock Yamaha brake shaft. Don't know what kinda break people I got it were using. Just cut a new brake pivot 1 inch pipe at 1.75 inches long. Then some thick plate to go under it since there's already a plate welded on it will go on top of that. The middle of hole measured 5.5 inches from middle of back exhaust mount hole. Next I got to take bike into dad's shop to get it welded.

I have a set of those from the mid 2000s on a project that went stagnant. I thought maybe they didn't make them anymore but checked out their website and was happy to see that they are still in business. I wish "The Horse" still was in print

Seems like this was cheapest route for controls as I priced forward controls at 380 after all the linkage and pivot.
Monster craftsman sell chain tensioners too. I might need one but that's down the road. They sent me some wild stickers. Ones space like with American patch on sleeve, part I like and then this cute little monster with a bloody chainsaw.
