First off I'd like to say thanks to all the posters who contribute here, without you guys there would be no way this bike would have turned out like this on the first try.
I've been working on this one since 2010 and its about 95% complete. I got the donor bike from a trailer park in Delaware for $400.
Features and Modifications:
-277 rephase
-Rear wheel conversion kit
-Brembo brakes
-WM3/4 Spoke wheels
-750 big bore kit
-xs750 gas tank, sanded to 600 grit w/ clear powder coat
-Radian swing arm
-Progressive rear springs
-RaceTech gold emulators
-Tarazzo rearsets
-Sparx PMA w/ giant green coils
-X-Arc duo signals
-A bunch of other stuff, a bag of chips and heck of a mechanical journey for a novice
Photos:
1. Donor bike
2. Engine replacement parts
3. Cleaning up the frame (note turnbuckles as new exhaust mounts, trying to keep the hardware store in business)
4. First mock-up with the motor back from powdercoat (not pictured - lack of money in back pocket)
5. Motor & exhaust reinstalled with checker board exhaust tape
6. Begin rebuild of seat and tail with all new electrics
