It looks fantastic.  I especially like the wire wheels and those awesome brake rotors.  Keep up the good work and keep posting pictures!

yeah... I'll repeat.. the disks and wire wheels are a  great combination!  [thumbsup]

BTW. (threadjack) anyone know where I can get a front spoked wheel from a sport classic?  I have a Honda CX500 project that I'm fitting a ducati front end too...   [beer]

So I actually had some time to torture my bike today.
Ya know when you do something, then you realise that your gonna re invent the wheel. Back to the drawing board with the set cowl, and gonna re invent the frame. Third pick is photoshopped to show the direction i'm headed. Oh joy, lots of work now

The pivot bolt for the rear rocker holds the entire rear end up.

What's going to support it besides the two tubes that go up from the footpeg mounts?

Started frame mock up and tacking, created a mess of work to be done to tank. But it will look great when all is done, will not see new frame add on
