Gordon's kit needs no intro nor testimonials, well known and proven. Mine was an especially awful case of PO butchery. When I was new here, I didn't even realize that my frame was missing a massive chunk
A few weeks into looking closely at the bike I realized something was missing. There was no way Honda had a frame that looked so abrupt.
It was cut off at two different lengths seat side
and was almost completely take off steering side
(below pic is of the larger of the front two, can't find the smaller one)
As my heart sank seeing this fiasco, someone mentioned the Gordon kit to me, and were also kind enough to let Gordon know of my situation. Gordon reached out to me before I even found his username, took my phone number and called me, explained every little annoying question I had as a noob, then put together a special kit for me along with the missing tubing and angle bar to regain the triangulation. All this at a ridiculously low price that I couldn't believe, which tells me he never was trying to make a sale, just trying to help me out and keep me from giving up on my build.
The kit worked perfectly even though the front side of the tubing was wayyy short than what Gordon's kit recommends, something I doubt a slip-on style would have been able to do. Frank's kit might work, but I know for a fact that Carpy's slip-on wasn't going to work when I was asking around about that last year (before hearing about Gordon's). I'm fortunate enough to know a seasoned welder with a keen eye and a steady hand who did a great job installing the kit following the instructions that came with the kit. Needless to say he was impressed with the idea itself and excellent workmanship.
This kit isn't the only thing Gordon has helped me with. He's loaned me numerous tools I've needed over the past year as my build went on, hooked me up with a GREAT set of JIS drivers and impacta, and the beast of an impact driver that will defeat anything. He also special ordered long stem carb tuning flat heads for me that are perfect for the job! All this just because I merely asked him about it!
This forum is great, every one I know here has always done great things to help me out. But I can assure you, every time I've needed anything from Gordon, he has always gone out of his way to help me. Like I said earlier, his kit needs no intro, just thought I'd let people who don't know Gordon, know what a great guy he is and his products are unmatched.
