    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

Started rehashing the old beat to death springer. Made a new neck stem and upper tree for it. Bushings and spring rods are next on the list.
 
Made two spring rods for the springer. Made the nuts a little heavier duty and looking a little nicer. Bushings and building the rockers would be next up.
 
Got back to work on the springer components. Made some rocker bushings and spring guides for the lower springs. The smaller diameter is a press fit into the holes I opened up on the rear legs lower tree, so they will bush the oversize holes and keep the spring rods guided..
 
Rolled her outside today for a few pics. One pic rule sucks though!
 
I would be happy doing something but I just can not arrive, currently doing one streetfighter for sale:

Very talented I would say.

I know this style is not "the performance machine", but I know it does turn a lot of heads as you ride down the road.



This one looks longer from the pics.

Any custom graphics planned on the white?

Yeah, its far from a performance machine, thats forsure! Its going to take a parking lot to turn it around in! 97 inch wheel base from a stock 58 inch.:D

Green pin striping, after I get it all together.
 
Well the trail numbers were thru the roof so I canned the rockers and redid them changing the geometry somewhat. Dropped the bike, grew the wheelbase another inch and a half and the trails at about 7 inches, so its good to go. Made a set of rear fender struts and dry fit them.
 
Made the front pegs and pedals for the foreward controls. Havent had a lot of time lately for the bike, or much else for that matter!
 
Havent posted a pic in a while. So, heres one. I made another set of bars since this pic as these sort of sucked.
 
Ahahahahahaahaaa, Going to run SU's on the thing..Ought to be a little different...
