MONUMENT TO THE 2-STROKE, PART 2 - FINAL ASSEMBLY
delphipro5:
Unfortunatley, some coners may get cut. I have been busy with work and I have little time. I really want to get this thing ridable this season. I have a riding get-together in sept. to bring it to, And would like it broken in by then! Doin my best, more pics soon!
Motorrad:
Cutting corners is never good...
delphipro5:
For instance I am not going to replace the rear brake pads just because I want them to say renthal on them!! The ones that are in the caliper now are fine. bareley worn at all. So there is one coner cut! It's things like that I mean. Or respoking the wheels just cuz the spokes have brake dust and minor surface corrosion on them... things like that I mean.... Gotta reign in my anal if I ever want this thing done! Can always fix it in the winter. Thinking new rims with street slicks on em! :-o :evil: :-o now that sounds like fun! NEXT YEAR~!
Not sure why the frame looks so baby blue in the pics. It's a lot darker in person.
Gettin somewhere!
sniper1:
It looks fantastic delphi and I don't ever see myself tearing the bike down like that but hats off to those who can do it I will have to outsource a few things from suspension to internal engine work this winter :(
Are the triple clamps stock angle? just wondering what benefit the aftermarket clamps give besides looking awesome.
Polar-Bus:
Wow, a K5 frame that still has the upper pipe mount tab in tact ? Are you $hitting me ? Now that's a VIRGIN frame.... (or already been repair welded) :-D
