Well you could go to the expense of buying the equipment, learning how to weld, find a material supplier and make your own.
I'm not a fan of Wompus by any stretch of the imagination but he apparently makes a quality product and as they say, you get what you pay for. No I don't know who they are so don't ask

Nobody said motorcycle accessories were inexpensive.

I had one. Top quality material, welds, finish, etc. Custom fit your your make/model bike, blah, blah, blah. If you guys can find the materials, fit it to your bike, weld it up and have it powdercoated for $200 (assuming you're a top notch welder/fabricator), I'd say to do it yourself. Dave Shelly is a qualified machinist (I think) and didn't want to pay for some parts so he made them himself. More power to him. You might (or might not) be in the same boat. For 99% of us, there just isn't any better choice.

Well, without any sarcastic undertones I must say, "That's quite nice and gentlemanly of you Tim!"
It's your kindliness, tolerance of folks short comings, generosity, paying accolades when due,, that makes not just me but thousands of folks glad to be a member here and to know you.

I don't know about members being glad to know me. I rode 1800 miles to get to Colorado to meet members at the rally and the only person who talked to me was Cindy. Everyone else would see me coming and not make eye contact

Before I knew Cindy was married to you, I was talking to her when an ominous 6'6' figure suddenly appeared from the dark, YOU, with a look like I was trying my damnedest to mount your bike or something, and ride the hell out of it and ask if I was Kawhead when I said, "NO", pointing at CactusJack, "That's him with the beard getting his picture taken on that blue Victory"! I imagine the next thing you seen when you turned back around was my spewing beer hitting the parking lot and me screaming for Tom to open the the funkin door! Sorta like this:
