[QUOTE="sodhead, post: 337423, member: 21815"] Well, this is what we came up with using the bender at the livestock fencing shop my buddy works at. Didn't turn out too bad. That bender is pretty old and the dies are pretty worn, so we had trouble with crushing and kinking of the pipe. The sand trick did help alot. Couldn't get as tight a bend as I would have liked coming out of the head, but it is better than the pipe I made by cutting and welding. We actually had to make this pipe in two pieces (because of limitations with the bender) and weld them together. The seam is the spot that has been ground on about in the center of the picture. I'll probably continue to experiment with the sand and heat method and see if I can get one bent on a little tighter yet. And yeah I know guys, the plastic, tires, etc. are junk on the bike. As soon as I get the mechanical details all worked out, I'll make er pretty. [IMG]http://members.aol.com/_ht_a/sodhead/images/75pipe.jpg[/IMG] [/QUOTE]
