Great build.That bike is really coming along good. Looks like whatever u do or how you design it, as long as it works and is structuraly sound it will work. Thats my modo. Would love to have that bike! An old skool leaf spring front end would look good on that thing. I make custom hand tooled leather seats,any style, design or plain old leather. Can be hand stitched or sewed. they r very strong and I use top grade, very thick, veg tanned leather. Also the padding use is the best, its an orthopedic type of foam. Prices are lowest around for what I do anywhere in the country. I have sold all over united states and even Italy. If interested give me a call or text 317-610-1629

Thanks 550fi. Most everything is at the blasters right now, not much to look at. When I get it all back and start my assembly you're more than welcome to swing by. Just PM me.

Cool stuff, set of levers, headlight mounting repair kit, cloth covered wire, tank rubbers, coils... misc. bits n pieces (the nickle and dime crap I feel I have to replace :-) ). I'm down to, welding up the tank, rear fender mount, final assembly of the engine, wiring it, plumbing it for fuel and oil, throttle... ok it's still a pretty long list but I feel like it's almost done. I'm hoping to get my stuff back from the sand blasters this week. If not this one first week in Jan.

Well, the price is usually free, because of the afore mentioned affiliation... but the turn around is slow because he does it in his spare time. The job he does is fantastic. I can't speak to the cost/turn around. Sorry. I can try and find out prices / turnaround times for you if you like.
