| Some 90 percent of all breakdowns are attributed to electrical problems. So, if you’re a hardcore maniac, an electrically challenged individual, or a bastard who likes to keep his scoot as clean as possible, here’s the unit. The company that developed this invention builds a handful of quality parts, Custom Cycle Engineering. They show up at all the major shows with their array of components shinning in the sun. But instead of scrambling for all the business, they just hammer out a small but significant line of products. For instance, Bandit uses a pair of their dogbone risers on every bike he builds. I’m not kidding. He does it because the bastard likes the way they position his bars. Plus, the neoprene cushions in the dogbones isolate vibration from the handlebars and ultimately the grips. Makes for a seriously more comfortable ride.
Here’s an example of his dedication. Bandit has a Dave Royal and Lee Clemens ’48 Panhead that he restored by himself. Well, I’m helping the drunken bastard rebuild the top end and install dual-carbed Panheads. In the process, while I’m out on a run for the weekend, he installs dogbone Custom Cycle Engineering risers to the stock springer front end. You’ll see a tech of it here shortly.
