Hi doc_Rot,
Thank you! Were you skeptical about how it would look, how it would function, or whether it could be completed? I'm only curious, as I had of course had my doubts about all three! I had the idea to put a big liquid cooled single in a classic style frame over 10 years ago, and had a lot of time to think about it. 10 years of thinking about a project, I had a perfect vision of what it would look like. This is not it! I have had to make compromises, and I accept that, in order to make this happen. If I had unlimited money I would have had a custom frame made, used 18" wheels, custom swingarm, right side up forks, aluminium fenders, and classic round gauges. But, this has morphed into something different that I hadn't expected, and that is more of a blending of modern parts and aesthetic. I think that if I had actually enacted my original vision I would have ended up with something that was less bold and interesting. I am really closing in on finishing this, just a few more months I would expect.
