well its an oldy, but a record for me LOL its almost a year on and I still own it
just had the tax reminder thru so I know its a year
over 4000 miles later its evolved and changed a little since the first version of it, mainly through my need to be doing something, diff was removed, mounts cut off and the diff swapped for a smaller unit and relocated to one side by about 3" this meant making new shafts, but gave much better run for the propshaft
front wheel got changed to a 180 tyred rear, then I found that the handling wasnt all that, mainly as I had to drop the rear end and this ruined the ride height setup from original design, front forks were too short and too soft
so hey presto, about £80 later I built some leading links, all my own work, just waiting on finding some money to buy a bit of alloy to make an adaptor for fitting front disc to rear disc bolt pcd, then I have a large 4 pot brembo caliper I bought off ebay when it was only £5 as the seller listed in on wrong section and spelt it wrong
over winter I will be stripping and tidying it up, ready for powdercoating and some hydrographics work, modify the bars to be narrower and further back, and either move the forwards, or just fit some pegs back in a normal riding position, forwards are fine and comfy round town, but my legs dont like them on long runs 100miles + on the motorway and Im in agony
I do have a 250 rear tyre, and will be trying to fit it to a car rim and might fit that in the front instead, it will just squeeze in,
