5/23/2024 3:43am Apologies for not updating. It’s been a busy month thus far. I’ve got the engine pretty much done, just waiting on dowels for the cylinder. However, I was able to get the bottom end into the chassis and get the rear suspension/swingarm completely buttoned up. also some nice stuff from SPD out of England showed up That’s as far as...

4/29/2024 9:41am Not a whole lot to update as I’ve been waiting on parts that are pretty critical to the next steps of building this thing.

4/2/2024 8:55am By anchoring one side to a piece of wood, do you mean mounting the flange where it bolts to the frame, or where the shrouds bolt on, and mounting to the wood? either way, it's good info. I didn't want to have to send mine away if i can fix them myself. do you do any sort of pressure testing...

4/2/2024 6:23am Alright so I started to mess with the seat yesterday, it’s original Honda foam and an original seat base. Unfortunately the last person to put a seat cover on was pretty happy with the stapler. And one of the mounting brackets has loose rivets. So I will be drilling those out and putting new washers/rivets on the brackets. The foam...

4/2/2024 5:05am Those look great after cerakote. What’s the method for straightening the radiators? I have one with a wave in it that’s OEM and good condition otherwise. Heat and locking the tank into a vise with a couple blocks of wood and pulling on it?
