    Heist owner, the bike looks great, apparently you and I buying these things has caused it to rain for the first time in a year. All of Austin owes us a thank you, lol. Gardo speaks the truth regarding Weaverrides. His mods make these bikes run even better!

    Gardo, the inspection sticker is 2.5X3.5". I think I might attach a small side mount off of the rear fender strut just for the inspection sticker and leave the plate on the rear fender. I will experiment around today.

    I made an inspection sticker bracket and mounted it as shown. *I used a galvanized hurricane strap for lumber I bought from home depot for two bucks. *I cut off one side and drilled a hole in the other, then used the fender strut bolt to attach it. *The surface area is the exact size of the inpection sticker, so for Texans, this item is perfect. Spray painted it black, except the area where the sticker goes. *Rock solid and worked out well. *I am ready for OCC!

    Sgt Barrow- Yea I know it's been raining soo much now ever since I got my Heist. Why could it rain this last summer when we needed it most? Haha And your bike looks sooo good man I love it! And that side mount idea looks good I'm going to go ahead and do that too mine.

    I left about two inches of metal on the attachment side of the bracket, which rests flush against the flat section of the frame where the strut nut attaches. In this photo you can see I used the strut nut to secure the bracket, plus some locktite. The surface area where the tag is will be placed is angled so it should be pretty aerodynamic, not taking the wind at a 90 degree angle. Tuff to get a good photo, hope this makes sense? BTW - Got some black inch exhaust wrap on today. Should help from keeping the leg and shoe from melting on to the exhaust.

    Look me up and I'll show you how I made the plate. I have the right tools and I will be happy to share, plus I have a friend looking to buy a Heist and he would love to see yours so he can see a more traditional looking bike. He wants to drive up to Plano.

    Setting the air fuel screw was always something of a mystery to me. Recently, I picked up a simple digital tachometer/hour meter. Really helped dial that mixture.
