Nice! What material used? 2024 t6? And just a x diameter hole in the middle? Is it 2 " high?

Finally got them installed today. Lots of clearance. I don't feel so hunched over sitting on the bike now although when it finally stops snowing up here and I can get her on the road, then I will know whether I like them or not..Bdog

Hmmm. Looks GREAT. If you are interested in making more and selling them to the group, Let us know a price.
I'm interested in supporting a Nomad rider before a corprate company.
