V&H SS2R

[Jonathon Jay]

I'll try to take a pic. Looks like a couple of globby welds, one on each end and one in the middle.

I bet they guy who does my automotive work can weld it cheap as low dollar insurance.

The early ones were just held in with a spot weld versus a glob of weld on the inside at the base of the divider. Mine was welded on the inside and lasted 30k on my bike and now lives on Pete Staniforth's Marathon Machine so it will continue to get a workout.
