I mean, its a cool idea, but it just isnt safe, its the cheapo home depot stuff. if he would have used some 1/2" thick stuff I might have said yeh thats kinda need, but this is about as thin and flimsy as possible

Yeah, but why not just use the metal stock ones? I mean the plexiglass don't really look better and the weight savings is almost negligible.

Maybe he wanted the clear look, like those lexan rims... I have cf heel guards because I like the way they look. He was basically cool with me until the holes in the frame. Everything he did to his bike prior, including the goofy exhaust, isn't THAT radical and has been used on other bikes. |

This reminds me of my first car, how I took some cardboard and made a "ram air tube" that went from the grill to the air filter neck. The placebo effect convinced me that it gave me more power.
