Wierdest thing used for a motorcycle accessory?

It all started with a discussion on toilet valve seals being used for saddlebag buffers.

So whats the strangest thing you've ever put on your bike as a part or accessory?

Caterpillar O-ring as a throttle lock. (On a Concours. Worked great.)

The rubber grommet that cushions the saddlebags.

Automobile door trim from Kragens Auto Supply. Wrapped the edges of my front fender. cheap chrome job for $8.00 (lQQks good).

Painted tail lights and turn signals black (thanks Gadget) $5.00 (lQQks better)

Dangling piece of crystal hanging of my luggage rack for more energy (Doesn't seem to work)

Glued a calandar inside a hard bag. I don't know why

Ron, do have a pic of the ass end of your bike to see the tail lights and turn signals? That might be something I would do.

home made cup holder attached to handle bars. used a harley davidson mirror clamp from j&p cycle, and a bicycle water bottle holder from k-mart. total cost about 15.00 dollars.

I put a bicycle water bottle holder on my mirror clamp bolts and put a std camera mount on handlebar clamp, although I just moved the drink holder to the side of my windshield bag. Rivited it to the leather with an aluminum plate inside to strengthen.

I haven't done it yet, but I have a hankerin to put a suction cup in the inside of the windshield and hang one of them there Pine Tree air fresheners on it.

Just want to see if anyone will notice.
