In this thread I will cover the modifications im currently preforming to my bike. Its a 1995 M900. I recently had a bad wreck where i hit a cat while in a corner. I broke my left femur and had to have re-constructive knee surgery. I thought what a better time to change my bike, i cant ride it anyway. keep in mind in 19 years old. Things to do -brace stock swingarm -design and fabricate rear suspension -fabricate aluminum subframe Bike before the crash.  |

ok lets get started. First thing is to get the bike where you can comfortably work on it.   Then take apart everything that needs to come off   |

Like I replied in your other thread... Looks awesome! I would be afraid though that it might upset handling a bit (I have no idea). You've got some guts!

thanks guys. As for the handeling that will be determined by my rear suspension set up. IM bracing the frame where i cut it so it should not loose any strength. Its rearward of the 2 motor mounts, think about it. Its similar to how the superbike frames are made up, and the hypermotard. Ive got a long way to go. Stay tuned folks
