Parts in and they look pretty awesome! Finish is nice and everything turned out looking good.





Mocked up a set of rails using my existing yoke and they look pretty amazing. The machined pockets saved a lot of weight vs solid rails.








Also got a few more parts in. Final version of the HPSD bracket with correct offset made up. Got this piece lightly bead blasted so it will look production after it's hard anodized black:



And the brembo rear master cylinder adapter fits up great figuring the complex curve I had to find some way to measure.






lots of welding to do next. I'll weld up the rails, then after motor is in I'll go back and do the motor mounts and front headstay mount positions.
