Re: How To~ Forward Tilt Your Hood.

One tip I wanted to add for guys like me who only ended up getting the hinge and not the rear catches. I scratched my head for a long time trying to figure a fix other than trying to track down another donor to get the rear roller catches from. One day while servicing my sportbike I noticed that my rear swingarm spools for the stand look EXACTLY like the rear catches. They can be found online for $15-20 and hold up a couple of hundred pounds of bike so they should be fine to hold the hood in place. Once my dropmembers are done I'll be doing this mod and post up some pics.
