porchev914 Offline User Whats that? Half of my swingarm is missing?!?!? Posts: 2716 Thank you received: 19	Damn, that would have been a pain in the ass to mig weld! I like the look of a clean conversion to a flush aircraft style filler. That will definitely be a one of a kind when its done.

I worked in a body shop for 2 years and we didn't have any fancy equipment. i am pleased with the outcome. It flows well with the knee dents. love building motorcycles one headache at a time

did some work

agm battery

The ducati m900 monster shock has the right spring rate and length i want. Plus i can use the linkage that comes with instead of making one like i planned.

i split the cases and cleaned it out replaced gaskets and counter shaft bearings and rebuilt the oil pump. Also stuck in some APE head bolts and put the bored pistons and jugs on

this is a brandywine candy i mixed up for the wheels

got some bores cut for the tubes and did one bevel for a better bite when welding

That's all for now i am also building a suzuki t500 2 stroke that has taken some of my attention
ALSO my daughter was born 29 days ago
