It would have been so easy to take this over the top and turn it into some kinda circus job but you executed this beautifully, nothing but kudos man! Can't wait o see the next project, if you are going a 750 turbo route I encourage you to check out and read through 750turbo.com, some truly brilliant minds over there and I suspect you'd glean some great info before you start dumping $$$ into parts
Great job once again!

Thanks again Brett, not to sure about the turbo. It just seems like it would be cool to do. There is a lot more engineering involved with a turbo. Not to mention the next build will most likely done to sell, A turbo bike may not be easy to sell when it is done.

Truly a stunning build and what I do respect is how you kept going after it.... If it wasn't right for you, game plan change /modification/repair to accomplish what you envisioned....
Another gorgeous build..... Well done!

Many people with a mangled wreck like that would write it off and salvage the useable parts...yet you chose to resurrect it from obvious doom. Cool story and it just adds to the sweetness of the finished bike, opposed to just building something or modifying an existing rider. Nice vision you had. ........................................Mike
