I should rephrase that...

Congratulations on your unintended success.  

I'll get one too someday.

Might also think about having them made up in plastic since once the mold's made the cost of the parts is teeny.  $50 for a novelty item is too rich for some of us tightwads, tho admittedly I want one too...   :lol:

Quote from: "Mustang"that cracks me up when people say "I had to lay it down "

 :shock:  :ImaPoser

no one in their right mind "lays "  a bike down on purpose .......... :roll:

Actually--OT, but I had bought a new Speedmaster a couple of years ago. Manufacturers defect, but the rear wheel locked and I went down.  My brother was behind me.  He actually did lay the bike down to avoid running me over.  

I was actually impressed, when something like that happens it's often hard to make the right response--my brother acted fast.

agreed but 99 % of the time it's just an excuse a rider uses when they screw up....................

Been years since I have done any sandcasting.

Make a master piece that is a mirror image of two paws/all 4 parts.  Then with one pour you will have 2 complete paws and the same sprues.  Cuts your molding time in half.

The Tiger Foot intended for my -98 Steamer arrived awhile ago. It did fit the Steamer as well, with a few minor modifications. The sidestand baseplate has the same pattern as the Girly, but I had to remove the wire loop and do some light grinding to the ugly welds.

It looks cute :D , and keeps the bike in a little more upright position when parked on the sidestand.

Thank you for producing a nice, unique product Jon :thumbsup

Do the larger designs (TT3 & TT2) weigh a lot more than the TT1? I'm assuming cost is the same regardless of style.......
