    DO NOT SIGN UP USING hotmail, outlook, gmx, sbcglobal, att, bellsouth or email.com. They delete our forum signup emails.

    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.

Now gonna spread the exhaust away from the body a little to make some room, put a tire(150) on my ex650 wheel and trim the ex650 sprocket hub a little, get an offset front sprocket and rig the brake master cylinder.
 
That's one I've not seen before... Will look out for the finished pics. Take it that's a steel swinger? :)
 
Fitted on the bike but I had to trim off the kawasaki shock mount because it was touching the frame at full compression.

Now that sprocket has to come closer to the tire.

That looks like a pretty good fit actually... lengthwise as well.

Click to expand...

At full compression it is very close to touching the battery box.

Hopefully nothing bad happens :D

I painted it black but gonna be a full month before my wheel arrives (its at my folks place in the USA)

Bought some RFY shocks and swingarm spools to finish her up.

Now gotta figure out some rearsets and muffler mounts.

Good stuff, and as for the battery box you can always make a smaller one and use a Shorai or something.
 
Dang! That's pretty sweet. Should be a cool little scoot when you're done!
