HB she's going to be a daily riderr her tracking days are all over with, ordered a set of chrome rims today, and an outright buy on a chrome swingarm all compliments of the eBay thinking about just pulling the motor anyway. While I'm waiting on the fairings and get the frame chromed [sm=signs007.gif]

$400!! That's a steal if I ever seen one, nice work! Hope it's something like a bend shift fork or something. Even if you have to put in $500-$1000 you'd still be well ahead. So are you going to turn it around or add to your collection?
[sm=happy046.gif]What did I say!! Awesome to hear HC! Always good to hear about a bike being brought back to life. Congrats again!


Oh yeah, welcome back!

Good to hear HC-it sounds like you have a monster on your hands there. A buddy of mine bought a nice *** 99 R6 a few months back and on his second ride the trans stopped working-it was like the bike was in N all the time. He about freaked out since he paid a nice price for the bike. Well long story short one of the clutch springs broke and it was a easy fix and the bike runs and rides awesome now. I guess sometimes things are not as bad as they seem.

It seems like you have a good plan going andare going to have a sweet looking-crazy fast bike when done. Keep us posted and I want to see lots of pix once she together.

Well finally finished the damn thing not going to take up half the day trying to list the modifications done most everything is custom from a custom-made license plate bracket to chainguard to progressive front springs custom gel seat, alarm system etc. etc. this was after a 200 mile shakedown ride sorry no pictures of it waxed beforehand way too impatient to wait that long have decided after I finish my ongoing cobra Mustang Project to build a custom cruiser using an RC 51 powertrain
just click on the video I hope you're not disappointed
