upper stay...which one should i buy??
i'm going to finish up my bike here in the next week or so, and i want something solid and dependiable that can with hold some abuse.
Let me hear some opions on which1 I should get?
First one is the one from racing905.com $199+S/H looks solid pretty nice, i've just heard stories about how badly it fits up on the bike installing it. Another thing i don't like the idea at all of using the cast aluminum o.e.m gauge bracket to hold the upper part of the stay. Its way to easy to bust that **** in half.
Second one is from http://store.runawaycustoms.org/upst.html $160 + shipping, looks solid. But i can see that being dangerous in a bad situation, if you look in the pics i am sure the top arms going up to the mirror tabs, they look like they could F*ck you up bad if you had a bad enough spill. But there is elimination of the crappy aluminum gauge bracket that cost $65+
But those are my choices, limited but those are my only options i guess lol
Post up what ya think

did you ever have any problems with yours?
did you think yours was pretty solid?

I didn't even use the upper piece after a while, that was with that shitty chrome screen too. The 905 side plates that go into the air tube in the frame need to be thicker. Mine bent the first time I dropped it. it looks like that other one should be stronger.

hey shawn when u call arron to order one. let him know i sent you and he should give you a better deal......
and yes they have changed a bit i like the new design. u having the 636 the 905 would be better so u dont destroy your upper doing a highchair or highchair stoppie
ive seen both types used on the 636 and id say 905 without a doubt
