There's going to be some twists and turns that will be noteworthy and shiny.

Thanks to Dan from 7 metal West for the copper fender. Awesome quality. His fenders will soon be in stock at Monstercraftsman.com

Well Jon,

I will be following with interest. What's the stretch & drop on the hardtail? It looks like you raked the neck a bit? I also want to see how that tank looks with the engine in. I am leaning towards one of your peanut tanks so this is perfect!

Looks good so far,

Doug

Is that a Lectron carb?

Large VM by the looks, my guess would be a 38mm

I have a couple of Dan's fenders, he's the best. Definitely worth the wait.

He even built me a custom diameter fender for my 23" wheel bike. Nice guy.

Will you be stocking anything cool like the brass and copper fenders, or just the standard stuff like Lowbrow?

Bronze Neck Gussets will bling it up a bit.

tig with silicon bronze rod. its basically brazing with a tig torch. i just used used silicon bronze rod to weld a steel bung into my new gas tank. its strong with great resistance to cracking under vibration, which sometimes happens with out beloved 650s .
