Sorry I haven't posted anything sooner work has been crazy. All I'm waiting on now is the clutch cover and ignition cover gaskets to finish assembly. Also a few electrical ends need finished but here's a pic of the progress. When I'm finished I'll post a detailed build thred on what I did.

Rides pretty nice. I had a hell of a time finding the right jets for the pipes but in the end it was worth it. Very light and fast

Interesting ignition coil relocation. don't think I've ever seen that before.
I see that there's a dynatek sticker. Did you go with a Dyna S or something? Thanks.
