Well i cut about 1/4" more off the down tube and got alot more room near the cylinder head. Got the linkage on also today. Now im just waiting for the swing arm so i can center the motor left to right.

Okay guys since i got back this weekend I got quite a bit done. The swing arm and swing arm blot showed up but still no subframe so that pisses me off a little. I got the swing arm bolted up to the frame and checked the chain alignment to make sure all was square before made the measurements for the spacers in between the motor and the swing arm as the motor is skinnier than the swingarm opening. I still have not heard from Jfab as far as ordering some rails but once i get the rails it can go off to the welder to start making motor mounts and get this bike read for the track

Well didnt have any parts to work on my bike this weekend but I got the airbox gas tank and rear shock on the way. I am still waiting to hear from jerry on getting a set of rails. In the mean time i can get my airbox boot adapter plate made and get the motor mounts made so when the rails get here i can have those welded in at the same time.

I got my rails from Jerry and they look marvelous!
I've been too busy with my shop but I'll toy with it this week :-D
