Thats how Pup started. Laied an engine on the jig, wheel in the rear, hung a neck.Then did his majic.

I just made some 3/4" axle blocks for a rectangular chromolly Jap swingarm.
Putting this wheel on a 77 KZ1000. Using 3/4" instaed of 20mm

And the fork caps are for my Pro-Street KZ900 project. All the bolts are black flatheads.
Wherever I can use them

"sweet build love the hog 5.5 rear wheel keep th pic's coming would like to see the swingarm setup trying to convert my 78 to 5.5 wheel". Actually the rear wheel is a 18" by 8.5" with a 240 tire. Is gonna take a 1 3/4" offset of the front sprocket. Still on the fence about turboing it.
