  • Theme mods...

    So I got a bug up my arse today, and decided to do a few simple mods to add to the USMC theme of my bike. I purchased some military surplus stickers from ebay (warnings, radio set, Tel set, ammunition caliber etc.) as well as a PRC-77 (H-250 circa 1992) handset and short range antenna to add to the bike. Have an idea how I will mount the handset (the handset is functional, but will not be connected to a radio of course) if it will fit where I intend to put it.

    If all goes well, it should end up looking pretty cool.

    ...I hope.

    A military theme KAt would be kick-***... and hey, you already have a really nice base to start with considering the paint you got...

    Pics of what exactly you are adding would be nice...

              Going to look good! I am about to make a road case for my drums and hardware that resembles a heavy artillery case/grenade box or something close if I ever get time.

                  The white arrow indicates where I want to mount the handset, yellow indicates where I want to fabricate a removable mounting point for the antenna.

                      Hook the handset to a megaphone. Then the azzhats can hear you when you're yelling at them!

                          What kind of theme are you doing?
