I'm getting tired of looking at the stock grab bar on my S, does anybody know of a fairly cheap one thats still a quality item, that will mount up too an 85 200s?

I want something phat, that I can fit both feet into :p

yeah you're right, cheap and strong, that would only cost about 10 bucks and few drops of elbow grease:D

I"m actually planning on doing just that.

My neighbor is pretty good with a welder.. and metal pipe and flat bar is easy enough to score.

I want one that goes low to help pull it up off the ground . my current one is way to high.

I was thinking of that, it wouldn't be hard too go crazy and make it too heavy by accident and turn it into a perm. wheelie machine.

Maybe, weld on a frame, and have differant weight, bolt on tubes so you can change the weight of your rear at your own will?

that would be pretty cool for 3 wheelers that arent hard tails, that would cause steering loss for riding with the weights on, on a hard tail
