Great idea, the stock ones only offer minimal protection.

Not true. The ones from the Hawkeye go on and there are predrilled holes in the back of the front tube that the Hawkeye screws go into. A direct bolt on.

Nice job Stendori! I like your "innovativeness". Question, why didn't ya paint'em RED to
match your wife's bike? -- LOL

Oooops sorry brother I didn't mean to float ideas to her as I know she reads these posts too...LOL
(All NO, not more work, that winch was a Bear all by itself, sigh) -- And to think there were
pre-existing statements that there was "no room" to fit a front winch in the new SP400, ya
proved them ALL Wrong. -- Keep up the good work Bro.!

Are you saying drinking out of a "strange toilet bowl" (wouldn't they all be
a little strange?) or drinking out of one is strange?

Either way it could probably be argued that many of us do, if we drink the water from the tap.
In fact, I's be slurping on some ole city water right now. Whatever we drink we pee, whatever we eat we poop
and even use that too to grow our food.

Man this cycle of life is depressing, ohh yea then you DIE!

Cheers,

Is it true the "GUY" who dies with the most toys wins?

How will "he" ever know that he is the winner?
