So I just went on Mikesxs and the pamco 277 ignition is out of stock. Any other ideas on ignitions. I just spent 500.00 on mikesxs and thats without ignition. kind of disappointed they didnt have it available. I need help.

Started reassembling the engine last weekend. The engine that came with the bike I was in the process of rephasing had the cam, ignition, and so on but when pressing crank back together it got bent somehow and by then I was out so much money I said screw it and bought a stock motor and am currently rebuilding it to run a stock setup for now. Also got the engine side covers painted and the color of the side covers is the color Im going with on the tank and fender and maybe fork legs. Let me know what you guys think so far. Thanks, Brad

making some good progress on the build. Engine is built. Most of the little brackets and such are welded up. Front wheel finally completed and on the bike and I resurfaced the rotor but still need to drill it. I got the clutch bolt modification done and the starter block off in. Now just waiting on exhaust so I can make a mounting bracket. Here are a few pics in case anyone is wondering. Let me know what you think please. Thanks, Brad

That's going to be awesome. Can't wait to see it finished.

So I got everything finished up a couple weeks ago. I have to say a really huge thank you to ramairgtz he let me use his garage and tools to complete my project and we also traded off some parts back and forth and were able to benefit each other and also I gained a great friend in the process. Anyways enough of the mushy stuff here are a few pics of the bike during final assembly and also completed. Let me know what you think please.
