While the smaller "Sport" style tool boxes show up on eBay fairly regularly, they usually sell for more than I'm willing to spend. Instead I got fiberglass replicas from Phil at Road and Race in Australia. He also carries steel reproductions of the originals. The steel parts are functional, while the 'glass parts are simply for show.

In order to mount the boxes I had to cut the stock mounts off the 160 frame and weld on some new tabs. Since the fiberglass boxes don't open, I simply installed some welnuts so I had a way to mount them.

Theknobs on the front are from Domiracer. I eyeballed the locations and them drilled a hole all the way through the box, front to back. I needed to have a larger hole in the back to have access to the nut that will hold the knob on. The smaller hole was used as a locater for a hole saw on the back, ensuring everything would be lined up when done.

From the looks of things I'm guessing the fiberglass boxes were taken from molds made off an original steel box. That means they have the same flaws the original boxes did. I decided not to fix the flaws thinking they might look more "real" that way. I still think that's true, but I chose to paint them with a silver pearl paint, which seems to highight every flaw much more than the stock paint would have. Oops. Oh well, I'm leaving them as is.

My next choice was what decal to use. I first bought some Sport decals (similar to those on a 125 Sport I think?), but then realized the bike was going to look more like a TS, not a Sport, so I ordered some "160" and "Monza Junior" decals. Once I got all my options laid out I decided to go with my original choice, the Sport decals. I like how they look, and very few people who see the bike will realize that A) the decals are for Sport, and B) this bike looks like a TS, not a Sport. I also considered making some custom 160 TS decals but that was getting too complicate for a bike that's intended to be a quick/fun/ relatively inexpensive project.

The large hole in back was filled with a plug from the local hardware store. I also bought some chrome plugs, but the grey plastic looked better to me. I'd like to say I planned it all out when I chose the hole saw, but it's just dumb luck they fit.
