Has anyone tried those aluminum ugly plates that cover the frame joints in the rear of the bike from Omars Street Trackers ? I was wondering how they fit and look. A close up picture would be realy nice. I want to use them on a regular 78 650E

Got any pics closer up, I cant tell much from them. I was going to make a set but cant find a piece of scrap aluminum. Found an old street sign but they told me they couldnt sell them. Even told them I was going to cut it up, still no sale. Guess Ill buy them

You could also try a local machine shop. if they have water jets or lasers they throw a ton of great material out daily, I know that we do where I work anyway.
