The only bad part with them are that the blades suck. I can't wait to see it done.

 

i dont know why people would talk bad about them. if you take the time to adjust everything they are badass. i have had mine for 5 years and dont have a single complaint

 

I forgot to mention the best part while working on the bike yesterday.

I was welding up some of the bracing, and my thumb was really hot, I figured it was just the proximity of it to the welding and kept going. Then I saw out the corner of the mask, and my hand was on fire

Haha, first time I've done that, was pretty funny actually. Thankfully my glove took all the punishment. Good times- I need some thicker gloves

 

I had that happend to some shorts, was kinda funny.

 

Well I haven't had too much time to work on the bike lately, my wife is due in less than three weeks, so it could be anytime! I'm so excited!

Anyway, did work on it a little bit today. Got my license plate mount done and tacked into place. Also, the footpegs did not come out far enough before, and I was having a hard time coming up with a good solution, but I got some inspiration today, and I love the way they turned out!! Don't worry, there'll be some bracing and gussets added for strength.

Also, the jackshaft plan of mine has failed miserably. But, Gary Poh, who offers those offset sprockets, is making me a specially sized offset. It'll save me a lot of trouble. Also, the rear sprocket I had was much too large- I plugged in the trans ratios in an online calculator, and apparently in fifth gear at 7,000rpm, I'd be doing about 45
So I also got a stock tooth sized sprocket from Gary- thanks again man!

I think I'm going to change my forward control as well, it just didn't come out as nice as I wanted.

On to the pics:






Let me know whatcha think!

Badass, dude. You're making me want a bike. :P

 

hell yea that thing looks badass....keep up the good work

very creative project

 

just set up a quick demonstration of the air system for myself, thought it'd be fun to put it online. Just a practice to see how well it's working. And I must say, I'm pretty happy
The rails in this video are right at about 4", and it'll come up even more because my front tire has a hole in the tube, so once I'm able to air it up properly it should give me another inch or so. No dragging for me!
