Hope to have the carbs re-jetted this weekend and get it down on the ground and see what we have.

Got a harley kick pedal off ebay, had to change out the stock harley pedal bolt to a shorter one.

Made a test running this afternoon, man what a rush. It was worth every pain stacking moment. Let me know what you think. ;D

It's almost exactly what I envision for mine. Excellent work. Forward controls in the future?

Did you have TC Bros do the cut and weld or buy the tail and do it yourself? I can't weld yet but have a neighbor that's a pro. If you did it was it straightforward? If TC Bro's did how were they to deal with? Thinking Tail kit, square bat box, forward controls from TC. Stock forks just like you have. Haven't decided on drag bars or mini apes. No front brake huh? You got Steel Cohones! Awesome bike.

Thanks for the compliment. Going to keep the center mounted pegs, I just like that tucked in ride position better.
Sent the frame to TC Bros, they do good work and I have not complaints. Just one warning thought, they don’t weld the upper and lower back frame supports. Be sure when you weld them in that you but something between the axle supports to keep the correct distance. By the way I have a battier box from TC that I didn’t use, it’s for sale $45.00 + shipping. (No mounting straps)
No front brakes…the only way to fly!!!

I just used my Kuryakyn (Offset Mounts with 1-1/8" Magnum Quick Clamp and Small ISO-Pegs) off my Harley crash bars. Plan on building some thing permanent so I can put the Kuryakyn pegs back on the Harley. The Magnum Quick Clamp will have to be the same size as your frame. Below is Kuryakyn link. Hope this helps.

joshua: The regulator/rectifier unit I got from Mikes PMA has closer hole spacing than original. Are we supposed to mill the holes to fit? Jun 7, 2017 19:25:58 GMT -5

joshua: My bad. I found the bracket they supplied to mount the rectifier/regulator... Uh oh. How is this meant to work? Which way is it meant to mount? Looks like I have to use some spacers or something. Good instructions would be nice. Jun 7, 2017 22:09:52 GMT -5
