DarrinGT Posted July 28, 2011 #1 Posted July 28, 2011 (edited) They are Ensenada Mexico on a mission trip, They do it every year for abuot 8 years in a row, I was able to go last year but it didnt work out for me this year. SO,...I usually find some project to do around the house while Lori is gone and suprise her when she returns. This year I decided that we need some storage area for all of our Motorcycle Stuff, Helmets, Jackets, Chaps, Touring Bag etc. They usually get sprung all around the house after a ride. I built a shelf on an un-useful wall in the downstairs family room, and also decided to get some pics of our bike trips and make a collage of photos. Here is the end result: http://inlinethumb54.webshots.com/45621/2060146090101950171S600x600Q85.jpg http://inlinethumb64.webshots.com/36351/2549971900101950171S600x600Q85.jpg HERES THE COOL PART,.For Hanger Hooks I used a set of Rider Pegs that came off the Royal when I bought Floorboards. http://inlinethumb45.webshots.com/46892/2355996130101950171S600x600Q85.jpg AND for the Helmet Holders I used the stock Risers: that came off the bike when I got new pullbacks: http://inlinethumb46.webshots.com/48685/2401736520101950171S600x600Q85.jpg Ans also used the front center covers that I had laying around for the end caps: http://inlinethumb56.webshots.com/46647/2859021840101950171S600x600Q85.jpg Anyway I think she will like it, I thought it turned out pretty good and just wanted to show it off! Thanks! Edited July 28, 2011 by DarrinGT
oldgoat Posted July 28, 2011 #2 Posted July 28, 2011 that is awesome and there is still room behind the helmet in the riser holes could be a hanger for something else?

DarrinGT Posted July 28, 2011 Author #6 Posted July 28, 2011 that is awesome and there is still room behind the helmet in the riser holes could be a hanger for something else? Yea there is a little wasted space there,..Ill work on that,.. Please please please dont let my wife see this post!!! She's been after me for a long time to organize the gear! Looks awesome though!!! I can see how that conversation would go. "Honey you need to stay off the computer,.....Ok you can go on the computer, just stay off the internet,.....Well then dont go on Venturerider.org,.....Stay out of the Watering Hole!" So good luck with that!,. Thanks for the props!, I will find out how she likes it when they get back in town on Sunday. Been a long 3 weeks!
