Got the kit from tc bros choppers in ohio. Seems to be a nice setup. Its universal, but ive seen them used on cb 500s and 750s and they look great.

Lookin at this kit makes me think its a bit more than i should tackle. Anyone have a fab or bike shop near pittsburgh and feel like helpin a guy out? Hell i dont care if its that close to pittsburgh. Send me an email if your interested. mdock138@yahoo.com

you can send tc bros your frame and get them to do all the fab and welding for you. it only a 4 hour drive from pittsburgh to liberty center. just call them u and drive it over. they would know best.
