Wanted pattern for lowers

**ringadingh** · 03-15-2009, 07:37 PM

There was someone here a while ago that had a pattern, but drawing one out yourself is not that hard to do either. Just come up with a size that still looks appealing. Ive seen some that look out of proportion on the bikes.

Not sure is this one will do the trick for you, but i found this a long time ago and could not find it again so I am re-posting the page on my site with the pattern download and instructions.

The instructions talk about bending the lower mount a bit, but it should work without doing that, that step is to get the lowers to line up a bit better with the windshield.

Idaho has a pattern he designed that he has been known to share.

Another tip for those of you with router tables. I made a template out of 1/4" plywood and then stuck it to the lexan with double-sided tape and routed it on a router table. Use a trim bit with a top bearing and set router on lowest speed. Makes a very nice finish to the edge of the lexan.

You can e-mail Jack from this Nomad website http://www.thewoodshop.20m.com/motor...m#introduction
and request a lowers pattern. You'll find a link when you scroll down through his First Impressions section.
I started with his pattern and modified it.
There are also some pretty sharp Nomad photos and ideas on the website.
