rough frame design very nice, but why don't you go ahead and work on the swingarm with the same billet pieces. |

Keep in mind the tire grows in the center at speed, might want to give yourself a little leeway.

Every time I meet a new group of your friends that understand you and your weird sense of humor I'm a little more amazed that there are other people in the world like you that lived through childhood - My loving girlfriend

It grows and forks will flex just a bit, some as much as .25-.3 inches. The forks on my Alazzurra flex about an inch at speed, but those are 35mm conventional forks... |

Check out my oil filter forensics thread! Offended? Click here"Yelling out of cars, turning your speakers out the window to blast your music onto the street, setting off M-80 firecrackers, firing automatic weapons into the air—these are all well and good. But none of them create a merry atmosphere of insouciance and bonhomie quite like a revving motorcycle.

Yes you guys are exactly right. I also will allow for taller profile tires. Ill be making another valve cover for the front exhaust. Much like I did for the rear. This valve cover will be a high clearance item to give a little extra room. |

dude, someday (next summer?) i'd like to get ahold of you to commission an exhaust for a 76 (ish) cb550 cafe project, if you arent too busy
amazing work, super creative. You should consider doing industrial design work on the side

Honestly I cannot see any advantage of running a hybrid swingarm. Yes It may look cool but it will be heavier and have more potential for flex. The reason Im doing a hybrid frame is so I can (hopefully) tune the ridgidity sp? of the front end. 1.5" .049 wall 4043 is some stiff stuff. |
