You could mount it on the plate anchored on the handlebar bolts and held on with velcro. Maybe wire the wires into a quick dis-connect so wires come off as one instead of seperate wires.

today i went to work on the frt. got a 97 marauder caliper - rotor i like these because the offset on the rotor works great as far as the caliper all you need to make is one little bracket and bolt on.

cut up the frt. fender which is from a 83-84 ninja to my likes and drilled the mount holes.had to cut some of the mounting tabes on the shocks so the tire will clear the fender test fitted it and now ready for paint.

got my bushings from the hardware for the frt. axle, i use the stock kz rear axle its o.d. is the same i.d. of the bearings on the 88-92 gsxr wheel works out great slide the bushings over the axle and slide into the shocks done deal.

i dont think i am going to use the sprockets, as far as the wheel in the frt. you have to use the wheel i have listed in this build newer ones are to wide where the axle goes just need bushings on each side to center i wrote in this build how to do it. the rear is a busa wheel with a 200-50zr-17 on the orange one.

Hey Jeff, I didn't by chance send you 5 intake boots? I'm missing one and had them all in the same box. Just discovered it trying to sort out the little things on my bike.

Thanks

Hope they run great also! I didn't think I put it in there and hadn't thought about it till I seen your pics of the carbs. I need to order some other things so I'll just order a set then.\
glad to see your making headway, I love the dragbike look myself.
