I have about 50 miles on it now. Everything seems to work pretty well:) The cool thing is that it does turn heads.

The Yoshi pipe sounds great! The rear sprocket i made is working great! The ninja front brake system is great!

Things i need to do: Make RH mirror mount, Turn signals, tweak the jetting, need to find a seat latch mechanism, cables for gages.

So, while i am riding it there is some more work to be done!


Thanks again for the comments!

Brilliant work!
You need to give us a detailed post on what all you did; mono-shock conversion, dual discs, 'J' looking fender...all of it. What a great job!

Looks great! Actually it looks like it left the factory the way you built it. Regards Doug
