Thanks Furius blue, My next one will be a lot better. The shape of the bracket really does toughen up the look of the back end. Cant wait to see it all blacked out and mounted.

Well here she is, primed, painted, tested, approved by wife.
I will run this for the season on my bike and start working on the new and improved version.

Metal, it really did turn out nice sir. I like the whole quick on / quick off concept.

Thanks a lot! The wife likes it too. I am taking a break from my next version, but I have some improvements to make so I am a little excited to get going on my next one.
