i'm going flat track style with this project,here's a pic of the starting point with a view of the unwanted bits in the background.a suzuki drz400 swingarm is currently being machined and welded to fit,i'm also on the lookout for some xl250s headers but to no avail here in the uk and shipping costs a fortune from the us where they seem to be plentiful. i'll keep posting pics as i go.

found a tank i liked the shape of,i have no idea what it was off of though it fitted the frame almost perfectly.i'm thinking it sits a bit too far back though.opinions on that would be appreciated,i'm getting impatient about the swingarm now so i can carry on with mocking it up.going with an xr750 seat which i hope my fat ass will fit onto!

i have now decided against the drz swingarm as it made the back of the bike look too heavy,going with the stock arm which i will have under-braced.still at the mocking up stage but i am loving the seat/tank synergy.
