Finally got round to working on my alloy pole, hears the work so far, its for my sx 650
Just before the work started
First off stripped the the old pole off , OH MY POOR SKI
Bottom of the pole jigged up with light gauge s/s , to check tolerances , when in alloy it will be all smoothed off.
Top part and steering jigged up
Steering all welded up with stiffeners fitted
Basics of the pole , the alloy tubes will be cut before fitting so as to get a -2" pole
Original pole chin pad cut down and re-trimmed ready
Just waiting now to get the final parts cut so I can make the pole base and weld it all together, then off to get the pole powder coated.
One thing when I removed the original pole, there is a pipe that appears to come from the fuel tank that goes in to a plastic container up by the bars, can I remove this pipe ? or whats the best thing to do with it,
