The front wheel has a xs650 hub so itsa dirrect fit but the rotor tip the scales at 50 ton so i cut the center outta them and let me tell all that will listen there hard as fuck so i pulled a page outta my " if man made it, i can make it better" book. I heated them up to blazen hot and let them air kool. to soften the metal for drunk grinding. these rotors are made of mars rock ( harder than earth rock by 7 zillion) its a number google it fag. any way with the two rotors center stacked im in the ball park of correct for a fzr rotor , and that ant bad.

Just so you know, that bike has valves.

It also has an electric start that's about a handy as a boat anchor. Both things that don't match your eyes or your shoes very well.
 
Wheels look killer on that brad ! Clean it up throw a leg over it and ride the piss out of it or trade me for the TT ;)
 
Hopefully you remember how to ride a motorcycle. Put it on the road boss.
 
Sorry but, I like it. :)

Any 2 wheeler to ride is better than no 2 wheeler to ride. :)

(as long as you at least have a 2 stroke project to play with)
 
Upcoming Engine mods include valve adjustment and oil change. I got a pipe coming ill force fit it with fire and hammer to serve my needs

Tonights goal Is to finalize the rear wheel spacing the front caliper hanger
 
Front disc swap is done and i dug through the boxes of crap and found a set of k&n's that fit o and the head light off the yellow rd found its way on to this bike
