small steps

the tank is now modified and some mudguards mocked up, the actual seat will br black, not brown, that little pad on the back isnt a pillion pad it's a pad so you can get your arse over the mudguard and lower yourself right down.. racer style.. may not use it though

box of bits

and a big box of random bits and bobs.

not sure if I am going to run a front mudguard yet or not

tyres

we will be running these front and back, 400-19 tyres for that KR chunky look

Beautiful

hand made aluminium silencers

my favourite parts so far

mock up

right, so this is a MOCK UP, the motor is bolted in tight but the wheels are just old mock up wheels I had lying around, thecorrect wheels and tyres will make a big difference, the handlebar riser is just the standard one until I have the correct ones delivered. It's really difficult to get an idea of how the bike will look untill we have the right parts but it will give you some idea of the overall lines of the bike, I am liking it, part pre 65 trials bike, part street tracker. it's going to be a lot of fun.

Frame

this is the frame i will be using, it's a frame i designed for my own flat tracker project it is based on a KR style frame but to house an evo sportster engine. I love the KR style loops on the back

hubs

the bloke I bough the bike off wasnt entirely truthful about the condition of the bike... thats no proble though the motor is good. we will use the hubs off the donor bike, these will be powdercoated silver and laced to 19" aluminium rims with stainless spoke and they are going to be the making of the bike
