This one is interesting.  I'm curious to see it when it's completed.

I definitely want to see this finished product too.  The frame and suspension are fantastic!

I have an old xl250 frame and bottom end I could get to you for a resonable figure if you wanted to try it on a 250, throw some 350 parts like piston and cam and it would screem!
