I like it. I have the single version on most of my bikes. I'll have to try a double. What cages are those?

looks great! thanks for posting; that bike is just fabulous. 
did you fabricate the mounting bracket?
for anyone looking for something like this for a fifties or early sixties british machine i think colorol offered them, and in colours no less.

Good eye, It is a Minoura Twin Bottle mount, I painted the bracket and the U-bolts silver with two coats of clear. Chrome Mounting nuts and washers. New plastic tubing on the U-bolts and a strip of protective tape on the bars.The Cages are V.O. with small clear tubing to prevent rattles.
Those mounts are rare, but I found "one" at the LBS for $2.00
