Beautiful work.

Thanks again, I'm getting exited about getting it together.

Rob it's a 77 C1 frame that Chris GAVE me, so cool. That's the same as I had originally. So you can say I've had a 77 C1 since 77.

R4, I'm going to have a lot together to put in the truck when I follow along on the So Cal KZ cruise. I'm hoping to have it ride able by summer.

This is the longest I've gone without riding it since 77.

For anyone that can, it would be an honor to go on a ride with Mark Wing when the time comes to be back on the road.

The Annual Mark Wing KZ Cruise.

Now that would be great ride. Better make plans for it now.

Is that the same bike you had the wreak with three years ago? I wish i would have held on to mine and finshed fixing her. But it is living a new life as a drag racer :sick:

Thanks guys, I am getting exited about getting it together. I just had to put some things together and see it. It looks like after I make some spacers for the front rotors the big brakes well work on the 18 inch wheel. I also still have to make some new axle nuts to fit it to the ZX forks. I may get it going with my old back wheel as it's already polished. When I polish the wider police rear I put a bigger rear tire out back. Sorry about the bad lighting.

Looking good there Mark! B)

With all that polished and chrome bling going on there, I'm definately going to need to wear some really dark shades when we finally go for a ride together so I don't go blind. :woohoo: ;)
