Thanks bro! Engine side covers powder coated flat black! The alt cover is clear to show the pma but I might put a slight tint to it.

Killin it... what you gonna do on the engine side covers?

Ditched the monsterous monstercraftsman license plate bracket for this little sprocket hugging gem.

Ive been looking for on of those. Where did you get it? I made my own but It doesnt wrap around the sprocket like Id like. Its still rough, I gotta clean it up around the edges and paint it, but it works. But I want one that surrounds the sprocket like that.

Lookin good JD.

Thanks man! Your bike is looking dope! ebay or Email James at jandcmaund@att.net and he'll send you a paypal invoice if you're interested. He's got a pretty slick skeleton version I picked up for my other build.

Thanks JD. Currently she looks better than she runs......well .....better that she idles anyway. She runs fine, but having trouble keeping a steady idle. But looks are whats important right.

Once I have her purring again I may pick one of these up.

Thanks again.

Digging Tron's clear alternator cover. Looks right at home

 

[Ketis]

Thats sweet man...

I may have to pick one of those up in the future

She sure is looking great Brother!

 

[jdizon]

Thanks Brotha! I'm going to try and get the engine in this weekend hopefully. Light at the end of the tunnel is getting brighter ;p

FnA Man! That will be cool.
It will be just a bit longer for me to button up my build
I went to see a friend at his fab shop today and got sucked into working.
For maybe 2 months. I figure I will send My XS head to hoos racing with the extra doe.
and go up to the mountains this September
I must say work aint all in cracked up to be.
I haven't missed it at all

 

[jdizon]

Congrats man! working at a Fab shop means more access to toys haha! Plus you gotta love that extra doe!

Btw Hoos racing is who I went with for my 700 kit. Top notch company/products and excellent customer service! I don't think you will be disappointed going that route. They're pretty quick too.

xtra doe is always good!
I knew that you had got the 700 kit from them.
Do you have to send them the jugs for that?

I paid for refurbished jugs that they had available. It is an additional 100 core charge and can be refunded once you send yours in. Also depends on inspection of the jugs, No broken fins, etc..

 

[I am Carbon]

Okay Thanks Man.
Now I need to think about this

 

[jdizon]

No problem! I'll let you know how she runs. I'm sure my bottle neck will be the BS38 carbs I plan on using. Might opt for some vm34's but I want to see how the 38's perform initially.
