You should at least find a Mudhens sticker! ;D And of course, don't forget to give ol' Ichiban a place of honor.

Ha, is it bad that I had to Google mudhens? And yeah, I'm gonna have to buy a few more from Mr green zip tie himself

Yeah, that's pretty bad, you are a native Ohioan.

Dang, I should have thought of putting one of his stickers on my van. It hauled that trailer down here ok, but I'm sure if I had an Ichiban Moto sticker on there that 350 would pull like a 454! (AND get the mileage of a hybrid!)

Can that waterjet cut the slits like in a flanders style clamp? They'd be really small- as in 2 or 3 mm.

Yeah, kurf is about .025" on a single line

That would be plenty no? You do under cut the rad so the leg is snug fit, you don't want to pinch past home much more than that.
 
Re: 1973 ironhead 1000. "the dark side" dead tail

I left .040" or so on all of the critical holes so I can bore them out. That way they are machined surfaces clamping the fork legs
 
Looking good I wish I could do that.

XB should be by soon to sign off on your work then will you be allowed to continue.

That would not be an issue as long as we had a 2d drawing of the profile for fixturing. Sure beats an 1/8" endmill through that thickness lol on mine, once I bore the holes to the finished size I'll just slit mine with a band saw since I can get to it from the outside, as opposed to the design of yours
