They look like harley lights off of a soft tail.

These aren't quite the same, but those look very similar to my 89 soft tail lights here's a few shots. I bet you could pick these up for next to nothing on ebay!

Yep, I've seen those on some motorcycles, I'm pretty sure.



Don

Thanks for the info. I'll check them out.

DennyW, Thanks for the links. I have also searched through motorcycle lights. The trick is to find a small light that will fit in the space under the headlight and not hit the side of the fender but the main thing is to find the right size threaded mount diameter that will match a threaded coupler attached to the headlight mount. What I want to do is grouse through a bin of different lights and pick the best fit without buying several trial and error versions so I was hoping somebody would say they had a certain model. Actually, there is a Harley agency about 300 yards down the street from my home. I have looked at their turn lights on the bikes but maybe the parts guy will let me look at the threaded end of some if I ask. Actually the selection is very good if I can figure out the thread size. The Harley agency must have 50 bikes on display in row after row for a total inventory of at least $1 million in one relatively small show room! The Screaming Eagle model looks really mean but I need at least three wheels at my age and prefer four!

Hehe, I saw just the motorcycle for you Don. It looks like a regular bike, but has some molded in outrigger wheels, one on each side. At first I thought it was a trike, but then I saw the fourth tire underneath and realized what it was.

As for the turnsignals, you will probably need to find them at Harley Davidson, as you mentioned. Any Japanese bike will probably have metric threads.

Don

Thanks Don and DennyW I would have missed the point of the metric threads.

Ron,

That was a good 'ol Redbone hound, and I'm not sure that wasn't a stuffed racoon.

DennyW, I saw your new picture you really need to get closer the razor....LOL

Hey!!!---Carefull with that razor stuff---

If you guys remember, the original inspiration for my T was a picture of a rat roddish T bucket in the desert. I swore that when it was done I would recreate that shot. Well, here it is..........................


Don

Whoops, forgot the pictures.


Don

Yeah, it's really tough living here. Here are some more shots I took today.

Don
