Finally got it done. Rode it yesterday to see what makes funny noises/doesn't work right, etc. It still needs graphics and I think maybe it will get them this weekend....gonna be a sort of banner looking black and white checkered flag strip that starts up by the gas cap and goes back to the wide spot on the sides of the seat pan...will get wider and slimmer as it goes I think. Turns out that I don't really like the right hand exhaust header too much and will probably re-make that sometime so that it is tucked in closer to the left one, but still the same length. It rides and runs great...already have had lots of good comments and a couple of guys wanted to buy it or to have me build them one like it!
It started out as a 1981 H model SX650 so, anyway, here are a few pictures (turns out that I could only post 12 pics in this set, so see the second set for more if you are interested) along the way as I built it:
Starting point!
