    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.

Thanks mate, I love how neutral they feel! Come to hand very easily and haven't given me any grief. I am however starting to think about trying some 'bar end weights as they may be a little more vibey due to the lower weight of the alloy vs. the stock steel.

The Acewell install and dash build are hidden in my rebuild thread... which is a little long :o Start at post #2177 where I make the speed sensor bracket and go from there. Post #2217 is where I start making the dash.

The 'bars are "Bike It" brand and they were listed as "Medium Braced" 'bars, and I got them locally at an after market dealer that I've had good experience with.

Great! Thanks for the info Pete!
I'll be starting a build thread of my own soon too.
 
A work in progress, slightly modified here and there.

Love it Jeff! Very clean! I like how the indicators, tail light, and mirrors really contract the edges in to make it just the bike. Looks like different 'bars too? Those spoke wheel T's sure are nice! I think one of those would've made a better base for my idea of a scrambler to be honest :o
 
Thanks a lot guys!

Pete, I think I've got the super bike bars on there from Z1. I must say your scrambler is a masterpiece, some inspiration definitely comes from you build!

It must be the bars and the wire wheels which make it work for me. Somewhat smooths the L features out of the bike. I'm a sucker for a blue bike with wire wheels.

Aaah cool, they certainly work better than the stock ones!

And thanks, I must say I'm still stoked with it every time I walk in the garage... still have days I can't believe I actually got it done and that it turned out so well :D

Agreed Charlie, it works so well...
 
I like the style...Plus I am working on figuring out how to remove the back fender and hang different tail lights etc. I can't stand the look of the back fender.
 
Kjsamm, what kind of speedo is that? I like the paint!

Gatekeeper - great 750e.
 
Old rebuild ive been doing, 5,000 original miles, shortened the shocks, straight bars, and put a 1985 gold wing Aspencade saddlebags and framework on it. just about finished, just a seat, exhaust, and paint job from complete!!!
