Nice write up on bending :thumbwink:

This front rack for the 2001 Elite has been almost complete for the past month, but am still searching for the right bag for it. Just needs features to mount a bag and black paint.

I followed best I could the your bending advice. The rack in the pic was perfect until the last bend - 1/4" off... my mistake! Use of solid rod like your suggested helped - hammered flat and rebent - zero scrap...

Fall - winter is a good time to work on accessories to your scooter. Keep mustangwag's rack thread in mind.

Furniture making is one of the biggest industries in the whole world. We can make it as a source of income or just a hobby. Whatever the purpose behind it, make sure that every piece is durable that will last long.
