Thanks man, I'm hoping once its all assembled it cleans the handlebars up that much more.

Yes it is, so far I am impressed with the quality and the looks are far better than the stock plastic.

Finally into a roller...

 

[wannabridin]

I must of missed it, but are you not running a neck brace? the roller looks great!

Correct, I removed it when I was cleaning up the rest of the frame. Thanks, its getting exciting seeing it come together.

What media and grit did you use on the engine cases?
They came out nice and shiny.

Where did you get that seat done at and what was the cost?

 

[Leebo]

Where do ya get them remote master cylinders from?

The seat was done at Chappell Customs (Tuffside Seats). Chris was very easy to work with and had a lot of good ideas to achieve the look I was going for. I sent him the raw pan and he took care of the foam and wrapping and charged $150 for it.

Its a #10 glass bead (120-200 mesh) from my local blasting shop, not sure what that equates to for grit but this is what they recommended for engine parts.

Where do ya get them remote master cylinders from?

MikesXS, i think their site calls them "performance rear master cylinders"

Couple little updates; tossed the seat on the bike to get a feel for how it will look. Also finally got my cylinders back from being bored over so I was able to get the new pistons fitted and installed on the motor. Clutch and PMA were also installed. This past weekend I finally dropped my tank and fender off at the painters so in about 3-4 weeks I should see those back with a sick design on them.

Looking sweet, again this is really great inspiration. Love to see the good craftsmanship going into this. Thanks for the build thread.

The bike looks great. I can imagine your pumped putting things together for hopefully the last time.

Those Allen bolts for the cam chain guide may not work out once u put the oil tube on. Mine didn't so I ended up putting the originals back on. Just a heads up. May work out different in your case.

Good call, just checked the oil tube and it won't fit. I'm glad you said something now, I'll switch them out for regular hex bolts.

Was able to get my side covers powder coated black.

 

[zzblazezz]

No problem brother. The build is coming along great. Powder coat looks good on those covers.

Or use button head allen bolts.

Yea, too bad SS ones are not readily available around here. The only good source I found for them is in FL and its not worth the shipping costs to Canada for just two bolts.
