- February 09, 2019, 07:54:15 AMFound something to fill in the empty space where the fender rail attaches to the front of the fender. Was able to match the color pretty well. Cost me $5 off of a seller on Pinterest (my wife found it for me). I had to grind down the top and bottom a little to get it to fit, but at least now the gap is filled in a little.

These cost me $147 delivered for the set. They were the only ones I could find in brown for my Lindby multibar....

- January 08, 2019, 12:40:23 PMThanks for all the compliments....when I first bought the bike in November, 2017, it was with the intent of parting it out....there were a lot of hard to find parts on it and I know I would have easily made my money back....BUT...when I sat on it after unloading, I started thinking "hey...I might want to keep this thing!". The repairs were fairly easy ( I have a full equipment shop loaded with tools), so after fixing the bad front bevel bearing, I started planning the paint and other items. Plasti-dip got me through the riding season until it was time to "git er dun". At first I was going to stick with one color (lower cost), but my wife actually told me to do the two-tone so it would look more vintage....go figure! Any way, the paint was $1200 including stripping and sanding down the old paint....I am very happy how it turned out..and my daughter bought me the seat cover from Saddleline....I think it matches the two shades of brown/tan on the rest of the bike very nicely....I also added a speedo visor today...works perfectly (one for a Vulcan 900) Last thing I need are the brown chaps for the Lindby Multibar....those are coming from SageBrush Designs....I really am itching to get it back out on the road, but we are having cold and rainy weather for the next couple of weeks.....
