good deal on the tank u lucky bar steward No comments on the project then mate good or bad sorry vin,lookin good m8.wish i'd have done the same with the shock now as you've got alot more space to put the pv electrics but i wanted to use the lc airbox. is the swinger set to the height i gave you,chain looks like it will be close from ea. do the forks hit the tank aswell vin,i had to do abit of welding to the headstock for the bottom yoke stops to hit. plus the caliper brace is a really close fit between the tyre and the spannie

Could always gear it up a bit if necessary No the forks miss the tank nicely! I have even thought about taking a bit away so the lock would be increased Not sorted the brake arm anchor yet so that will be the next challenge that and putting some stabilizer mounts onto the frame

Well........bike looks like a disaster-zone at the moment......but knowing your talent mate - it will turn out to be a real stunner - just like ALL your creations. If your arms will reach...............give yourself a pat on the back Excellent work

Modded bikes in their "raw" form always look rough , but after the welding is done and a bit of paint here and there....the transformation is amazing......................thats what I meant

looking like a great project vin,, so what headlight and clusters are you planning on fitting to the front end of this creation?.. some twin round led headlights in a chrome surround would look nice!,, I'm going to keep the LC look with LC clocks and Headlight and will hopefully look along the same....ish lines as this but without allot of the bling and with lc clocks, black gully and marsbar possibly ............. so nothing like this really ;D
