PMS3 - Pimp My Segway™ ]|[
 

Ok, Starting the photo library

Justin brought me a handlebar that was not working, but he cut it in half,
I replaced the broken guts and used that as my base for my new handlebar

First thing I decided was that I needed a Horn;

So I added a 'horn' button

Here is the base

Since I was planning on running a touchscreen / navigation / !!!
thru the handlebar I decided i needed ROOM to pass 'many cables'

And I wasnt kidding here is the wiring that I am passing thru the handlebar!

More to come

Looking cool! That is a crap ton of wiring you are passing through!!!

I think i will also try to do some pimping during the winter - but probably not of the grandeur of your pimping...

We will see

Thanks for your inspiration, and looking forward to seeing more and more and more!!!

Post 2000!!!!!!
 

yup - 30 wires AND the segway set of controls.

It was a major feat to be able JUST to pass the cables thru everything.

BUT I GOT IT!!

muhahahahahahahahahah

(sick, aint I)

Well Work continues..

I built a special base, so I can work on the handlebar

AAWWEEESSSOOOOMMMMEEEE

Keep the pics coming! This is a world-class mod!

Trademarked?
 

Great job!

By the way, your thread title says "Pimp My Segway", and that it's trademarked. That's funny, I can find no record that the phrase was ever trademarked. So, I just applied for it!!! Just kidding Jon....

If you're serious about protecting the phrase you should have it trademarked. Using the 'TM' improperly is a no no....

Pimp My TM™
 

Tom, I have been using "Pimp My Segway™" since I first Joined this forum
As far as the Trademark law reads; If you Trademark something and publish it, it is considered Trademarked, It Its Registered (®) or Copyrighted (©)THEN you HAVE to register it

I see the Garmin GPS reciever... but are you adding other info. or touch screen commands?

Hopefully Segay will release the mounting bracket for the i2 so I don't need to make one. Then I'll add my Tomtom 910 GPS and some Whelen LED warning lights. Post pics when it's done!

Jon,

I apologize. I looked up the law and you are absolutely right. I stand corrected sir. I learned something new today! Thanks...

CT,
Did you see this alternative to the Segway mount that Isidore found? I got two of the small ones and it seems pretty sturdy.
