Great work Chris. I like to tidy some of the welds before powercoating too. Makes a big difference to the finished frame. Looking great so far mate Dusty

Man and lathe in perfect harmony. I echo Dusty's words. Mojo loss is a bummer. Been there, didn't buy the T shirt.

Hi Chris
Top work as always. Risers look great. Donβt worry too much about the Mojo coming and going. We all get there at some point. My own build has now crossed into year 3 with numerous stop starts along the way. π€¨
Good you are back at it though and great you have such a useful workshop at your disposal. Well jealous π

Rubbish Chris - your work is awesome, well thought out and expertly done. Real attention to detail, and parts that are better than Yamaha 's own. I love watching your builds take shape Dusty
