don46:
I have the JD2 model 3 bender, it does a nice job, the benders are the cheat part, the dies are $300+ depending on the size. I used the 1" radius tubing, it ended up looking factory.
LundMx:
So more progress made once again! check it out! :mrgreen:

TIME TO MOUNT THIS MOTOR!
TIME TO MOUNT THE FRONT OF THE MOTOR
LIKE A GLOVE!
AND TONIGHT WE START ON THE HEADSTAY AND PIPE!
sandblaster:
Excellent progress.
Great job!
LundMx:
Ran into a snag, and a big one at that! the kx250f radiators are too long and hit the "Y" piece... need shorter rads.. any suggestions on where to start?
LundMx:
Tonight we got started on the final stretch of the motor mounting
The head stay came out super solid!
And now to take 1/2 kx500 pipe and 1/2 cr500 pipe and make one!
