I'll share some of these images, and will post more with the project, but I was rushing to get it stripped beforemy busy season.

While I'm hard at work, the engine will be done, the frame powder coated and the bodywork painted.

This is the donor bike..

Lined up with a GS swingarm and 17" 160 rear..

this may go on another bike... not this project - thought you may want to see...
the 160 fits the gs arm with no problem other then it needs to be pretty close to the rear of the arm, making chain tensioning a bit less flexible.

- my other, or what seems to be old, hobby is photography, so this was my photo studio.

Since getting reasonably happy with one woman, my photo shoots are few and far between... I did performance industry work... parts and barely clothed girls, and some magazine m/c magazine shoots.

hmmmmm just dawned on me... I went from playing with women to playing with old greasy bikes.... I need to re-evaluate my priorities.
