i didnt get the rear heard it makes the back lock happy. as for the length i had the made that long cause i just like the loop effect i might secure them once i decide on what headlight setup to get. i

as for the engine, it was fairly quick about an hour and that was me alone while just using two jack stands, car jack, and a furniture dolly as an engine stand. if ur gonna paint the frame i highly suggest removing everything but i hate seeing half a$$ paint jobs

 

Thought you'd say something like that but I think it is the push I needed.

 

I've done my rear brake, too. I don't consider the rear-end 'lock-happy'.
Definetly firmer, but, I think, easier to modulate after you get used to it.
It's, imo, a good idea on a bike that's 10+ years old. The stock lines
really aren't trust-worthy at that age.

Just be sure, with the new lines on the front, that they don't foul on
anything. Don't want them hanging and affecting the steering.

I got mine on e-bay, got all 3 for $80 off a wreck-bike part-out.
Just got to be patient and prowl for a while. ;-)

hmmm will be ordering one next week

 

Thanks for all the responses. I just got my bar clamps in yesterday. I'm having to slide the triple trees up the fork tubes a little bit because otherwise the dirtbike bars won't fit.

I haven't ordered the brake lines just yet, I wanted to make sure of the exact length I needed.

Lately I've been trying to figure out how to integrate my turn signals. The Hotbodies R1 race tail I've got came with two LED brake lights and I figured out I can use a tail light converter for a trailer to integrate them. Should be a good time.

Here's a couple of photos so far. I'll have better ones later.

 

Here's some shots with the tail set in place, but since then I've repainted the tail and primered the front headlight piece.

You can see the Acerbis Cyclops (Chinese reproduction) headlight. So if anyone was wondering what it would look like on a Hurricane. Dare' u go.
