keep askin around keshon. You might find someone you or your parents know or even a local metal shop who might help you out. someone you know has got to have a welder in thier garage. If alf ment something like what I did ? It is strong as hell !!

I can give you the exact measurements. you could prob. bolt it on with u bolts
If you get someone to weld it up for ya.
Good luck !!

Re: Scraping grab bars

Hey catman! could you give me the measurements to the grab bar you made? i am making one just like it with angle iron this week! keshon, make a grab bar like catmandoo, it will be strong and work well (you will also save $50-$70 on buying a grab bar!)

It's 10 & 3/4 in. outside's of angle pieces. 10 in. long to bring it to the crossmember. About 80 degree. on the bar weld it up in the air to get the angle perfect.
those are for the 400ex. prob. not the same on your bike
