The bike looks a bit high at the back....you need a smaller piece of wood to lower it a bit :-)
Regarding the tank, it looks okay from the back, but from the side, the gap underneath looks too big.

would agree with 4lo4ever the gap between frame and tank doesn't look the best, the rest of it looks 100% what sub frame did you use?

Lol the wood isn't the issue with the height as I can lower the sub frame the gap on the tank can be sorted too just toying with it for now the sub frame is MVF3 cheers guys :-)

Not without a lot of work to the underside to narrow the tank and make it fit, no.

Is that the Gilera / Derbi tank? Are the wheels Ozz or the Derbi copies?

Trying to sort out the top shock mount with regards the shock itself from an MVF4 looks ok but for some reason not 100% happy so I've ordered one from an RSV4 which I think will sit a lot better my clip ons came and the 999 master cylinder I will sell on the MV shock if anyone wants it £165 bargain  |

Have you checked your chain run yet?
I assume your wheel is 17" x MT4.5 with a 160 tyre?
I am testing my first choice of wheel in the hybrid I am building of exactly the same sizes, and the chain run is tight to clear the tyre and frame.

Hi buddy sorry for the late reply...I've checked the chain run and I've ordered an offset front sprocket from nk racing £35 del it's a 17t 9mm offset does the job good luck with yours chap :-) |
