Custom Exhaust Bracket
Using the old left over piece of the L bracket from the tank mounting hardware, a exhaust bracket was born.
This design might be reworked, we talked about using some square pipe but for now this will work.
Chain Adjusters
Well it is now time to install the chain adjusters. The only problem is, I only have chain adjusters for a Maxi. So what do we do next; Fab them. I'm going to use the eye bolt from the Maxi adjusters and make the back brackets.

Custom Gas Tank Mount
To begin, Bill and I had to ponder the millions of ways we could possibly mount this tank on to the frame. After hours of major brainstorming this is what we came up with.
