Made the last pieces missing from the frame today. I have to finish them tomorrow, but they are pretty trick.

And what're we looking for in that last picture?

Did you clearance your side cover some to help it fit past your frame if you need to remove it?

Isn't the cut-out facing the wrong direction for that?

Nope, but my rear was showing cords and my front was also toasted. So I decided why not.  Threw on a set of Dunlop sportmax gp's and promptly crashed on them last night.

Exactly.  The new shiny aluminum has been clearanced to help remove the side cover. If you remember I also clearanced the frame.


The cutouts are to save weight and to look cool. Ill be making them slightly bigger today.

hahaha same here, i only did the burnout cause i was in front of the tire shop about to get new Q2s put on my bike. would have smoked it out longer but i was affraid the tire would explode and damage something on my bike or one of the bmws that were around me.

sorry to hear about the crash. i assume that since you replyed quickly that you made it out alive. lets see... that makes your second crash in less then a year correct? perhaps you stop riding bikes untill you finish the monster build 8-)
hahaha

ya not too much I can damage on this thing. 





Ya ive had two easy lowsides. First one due to tiny gravel in a parking lot, this one due to 35 degrees outside and me not knowing how slick my new tires are cold.   I would stop riding as much but its my only form of transportation.

That shock reservoir looks like it'd be hell on the nads in a panic braking situation.   Shocked

Its never been a problem. Think about it, your hands and feet are both in front of you keeping your body from sliding forward. Now if it had rearsets it would be a different story.

Yeah, I've never ridden anything with forward controls.

I guess that's why I didn't think about that.

Still... I don't know if I'd wanna take my chances with that.   laughingdp
