Well kinda a found update.
The pics from Anti-pod and I took the bike for its first ride. About 15ft to the ground.
Lmfao. Then down the alley both ways and back.
I spaced the front axle and had to move to tank mounts down a bit so the top triple wouldn't dig in still. That needs welded up still but it's all there for testing.
Through a old piece of wood and some shop towels of the rails for the test ride. That's one of my best friends Ed boi on the bike .
Going to start mounting the TC Bros forward controls and figuring out what to do about the brake pivot. These old Kook pipes don't leave a lot of room for the pedal to move. So there will be some additional fab going on with that.
Using a silicone based RTV for the filter cuts. I wasn't going to hold it long enough for it to set up. That's where the zips came Into play. Hoping I have my cuts right so I don't have to order more foam.
Still have the brakes and controls to get done one wore tuck under the rear fender.
And welding up the modified tank mounts.
Oh, yeah and importantly fighting all the motor mounts the rest of the way up in the front.
Currently having a beer happy I got to ride it. I know it's going to be a challenge to ride till I get used to it but so was the 10ft long KZ750b I used to daily. I know most of you guys disagree but it's fun for me.
That's why we are here to enjoy bikes and help each other and this has been a great community for that.
