Here's an update as to what seems like a life time project . It's been a slow process due to the fact the bike is located 390 miles away from were i live now , I 'm currently commuting about every other week and hope to have it complete by AUG 2015 , I had temp wired it and took it for a ride a few months ago. sounds and rides awesome even though it's out of tune, frame is nearly complete then its off to powder after which I'll start on the wiring.

More frame work , I've been working on the fabrication and Thankfully my friend has been hard at it on the welding . Team effort's going to get this bike finished up , Iv'e relocated about 400 miles away from the bike so its been a royal pain in the ass . Almost ready for powder.
