Second version of speaker covers for FXRD

1986 fxrd aluminum speaker cover and brass plates

Second version of speaker covers for Harley-Davidson FXRD fairing.

Etched plates which are made of brass have more simple appearance than predecessor.
Grill part is honeycomb style mesh and other part of the plate has no specific design. It is just painted black.

Base plates are made of A5052 aluminum alloy.
Kit contains 4 slotted bolts and 4 wellnuts.

To mount these covers on fairing, a little work is necessary. Please ream the mounting holes existing on the fairing so that the wellnuts can be inserted in them.

Designing Brass Footboard Inserts begins

Now I started designing footboard inserts (floorboard inserts) used until 1990 Harley-Davidsons.

They are equivalent to Harley-Davidson genuine parts No.50614-66.

Not only Harley-Davidson FL models but also some FXR models like FXRD and FXRP have footboards.

I’m planning on using 1.0mm thickness brass plate as a material which is same material of brass fish scale tank dash cover for FXR.

Although the part of their design follows FXR fish scale tank dash cover, I contrive ways not to make someone feel of strangeness.
