My first attempt at fiberglass work to fabricate an extended tail piece and seat to match the longer exteded swingarm. Took a while and a lot of sanding but it turned out okay.

Except for the cam, valve-train, carbs and tires, my salt-flats bike is made of 'recycled' parts sourced from a few 'bone'-yards............

I think this is the preferred method for most UN-SPONSORED racers ;D

When was this Frank?

It was the mid to late 90's Leino. Building the Honda was a lot of fun and its paid off many times since it was put together.
