thanks, hoping that by posting some of this stuff, and having a thread I'll feel pressure to finish it off. Next pic is a close up of the seat pan. Design is not really finished, just outlined. Burned in with a combo leather burning/soldering iron. The hammer- I'm not really throwing anything up there, just part of the design along with the wrench.
Ok, this is kind of a money shot. The kicker pedal is from guess where-damn right the scrap yard. It was a bear to do, a buddy from work lathed the left hand threads off and i died them to rights. You can see that I cut the tank mounting tab in back to clean up a little-still one ugly f!@#!er though. Shows a decent view of the motor mounts (top rear), and the battery box behind the mounts and under the electronics container. The motor mount has two all threads, plenty of washers, and nuts. The all threads also hold the battery box on. I really dig the way that troybilt did his mounts-super cool. The side mount high pipes you can see also, along with the start of my right side forward control for brake-I need to take more pics of it. Some people may say that the bike pedal kicker is a bit played out, either way I'll probably keep it and maintain my dorkness.
The coils are under the tank still-had to drill some new holes and fab some mounts, I don't think they are in too bad of a spot-still mostly hidden but not in the exhaust oven. That is it for today, hopefully I can do some work on it tomorrow and take more pics. I still have a bunch of pics to post that is already done.
