This new batch has slotted holes for the License Plate itself so it will fit Virginia plates as well as the typical size hole pattern. I want to thank everyone that has bought one of these, the feedback has been all good!
I will also have an option to buy one of my plates WITH the triumph rubber bands that our fine forum member GHIS has discovered and shared with us in his "[url=http://cb1100forum.com/forum/showthread.php?tid=5871&highlight=cables]those cable were driving me crazy" thread. They seem to be on backorder everywhere, including where I ordered them from, so this will be a way to get them faster and pay way less shipping cost!~

I just bought the 'old' one... did I purchase it too fast? Will my Florida
plate fit on it perfectly? Since it's not slotted? Uh oh...

I never heard any bad feedback from Florida on fit up, so I'm guessing your good. If for some reason you are not, I will definitely take care of ya! Thanks for the order I will ship today. Jeff

That looks great!
Hey Metal,

Did you notice that Guth added a new section for Members that make stuff? Its for people like you according to the rules.

It is right below the For Sale section.
Awesome!

Ordering mine shortly.

Any word on a back rest from anyone? My wife can't take more than 30-40 minutes on the back as it stands now, but any existing backrest options in the wild are pretty terrible.

I finished a backrest prototype and will be kicking out a few with improvements later on. At this rate I am guessing in the spring but could be sooner.

What we need next is for you to go to Cone Engineering and grab the stainless steel 18" Quiet Core muffler, the 18 degree mandrel bent tube section, and then weld and finish them into custom CB1100 exhausts...
