Spoke to my Snapon dealer today, Gave him my Solus obdII scanner and told him to bring me a mig welder. How else am I going to mount the shocks and make the exhaust hit?

What bike did the rear suspension come off of the swingarm, shocks, caliper, ect. Was this a direct bolt on or what kinda modifications were done to make this fit? Also same question to the forks. All from the same bike? Any insight will be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

It's all good Mark. The stem is and clamp are together.
I kind of felt like this thread was being highjacked, I was a little disappointed by the repetative picture posts from people who are not even communicating with me.

Anyway! The front wheel, handlebars, and bar clamps are on the way:woohoo: :woohoo: :woohoo:

just sitting back and taking in the progress!

Old school 77, you are going to have to use Babble Fish at Yahoo to translate the site a-magic.com. Auto Magic is in Japan.
