Mocking up the frame. Need to mount the rear sets, modify a steering stopper and make an electronics tray. I'll also clean up some of the ugly Suzuki welds and it is ready for powdercoat. I will attempt to make a seat pan as well.

Thank you!Originally posted by kvillebuckeye View Post
I hope to get to the electronics tray and battery mounting done next week. Hoping to get a nice clean look so it can't be seen from the side.Comment

Today's project. Found some round tube and threaded it to m10 1.25. Drilled out the rear set mounts to fit m10 bolts. Bolted it on and TIG welded to the frame.

Nice build; never noticed it before.Comment

Been Busy with another project. But this one is not dead and I plan to get it finished up by the end of the year.
Got the hoop welded up and added a piece of the gusset back in to give it a cleaner line.

Battery tray came out great.

Added a fork stop (I think that's what it is called) on the left side and did some trimming on the right to work with the 1989 GSX-R750 front end. Now the tank won't get a beating from the clip-ons or the fork tubes. Test fitting some of the controls and the gauges as well. Hopefully will get some things to the powdercoater in the next two weeks and get to some of the assembly done.
This is a 1989 GSX-R750 front end.
