Been a long time in the making. But here are the most recent pictures I have of my project, as copied from the Hondatwin Forum.
This is obviously a work in progress. Pulled the initial machine out of someone's shed. Been a long road since then, and it's still not even close to being done. This is the initial mock-up, making sure everything fits ok, making brackets, removing brackets, deciding on paint, all that.
Note: These are not the wheels/hubs I'm using. I am going to be using the rims themselves, but not the hubs. Included are some pictures of what it 'was'...enjoy.
How it sits:
How I brought it home:
There are other not as important pictures, but those show the progression of the whole thing. Also, had a question, there is this piece:
Which goes here:
You can see the brackets for mounting it in the last picture. I see people removing them, and relocating the kickstand. I'm ok with this. However, does this item play a role in the solidity of the frame? It's a pretty hefty piece, with pretty hefty bolts, and it would seem that if I removed it, there would be a large amount of structural rigidity lost. Any thoughts on this?

P.S. In case anyone is wondering what the final scheme is. Paint wise. I intentionally left certain items out of the pictures so I don't reveal it. But I promise, it will be very different. I just don't want anybody to go out do the same thing, that's bad.
And yes, there is still LOTS left to do. But, it's getting there.
