Wow, you are zipping right along.
I love that swing arm and that mono shock looks great exposed like that. How fat is that rear tire?

don't be fooled by the pics, I still have to fab a mount for the
mono,and a mount for the mono pivot. at the front I'm still
waiting for my taper bearings so I can tell if I need to have a
steering stem machined. still have to relocate my electrical
stuff,front and rear master cyclinders,new front wheel,offset
counter sprocket ect. ect.
BTW that rear tire is a 170/17"

Well i stripped the electricals out and got the carb pods put on,
time to start cutting tabs off and and start fabbing my mono
mount and seat cowl, at least this part doesn't cost me anything.
the to-buy list is getting big
looks pretty cool as just a bobber, but I think I will put the
rear cowl on so I have a place to put my electric bits, I did
think hard about leaving it off.
sure looks a lot cleaner without all the electrical crap!

Now that the mock-up is done, it is time to start fabbing a
underseat tray to hold all the electrical stuff
( coils, ic igniter, starter relay ect. ect.)
I pulled the front and rear end off to have less stuff
in the way while I'm getting things sorted, still have to
figure out how I want to mount the mono

it's not hard, just go slow and research,research,research!
the info is out there.
Other than that, it is a willingness to take the chance to maybe fuck up something expensive, and try again!
