Its been awhile since I have updated anything, I haven't really done anything but get new triple clamps and started to fab up the steering stabilizer.

Seems like great minds think alike as I’m trying to fit a hpsd on my 07 rm too haha. Trying to make it bolt on with some custom billet aluminum parts. I’ll definitely be watching how you mount yours. Best of luck!

So I have been fairly busy and have got some things done on this build. I basically have every part I need now to start to actually rebuilding it. Ive started to do some video's of the build and plan on doing more when I actually get to the good stuff.

Here is the link to my YouTube page if you want to check them out.

I am hoping that the gas tank come next week so I can start mocking everything up. I also just ordered a set of wheels from dubya wheels. I think that they are really going to set off the build.

So the gas tank showed up today. Wasn't expecting that it would show up in 4 days. Here is a teaser picture!

I mocked up the tank, one shroud and the seat. I tried to put the new seat cover on, the staple gun I have didn't really work so I have it started. I guess I am in the market for a new staple gun now!

So I bought this 2 weekends ago and haven't had a chance to do anything to the bike because I've been riding. Im taking this weekend off to hopefully finish building the motor.
