It's weird to lose our smart ass comments from a day ago.  Now we have to come up with more smart ass comments.

I did get some time in the Machine Shop last night to make some spacers and a sprocket carrier. I still have to make a carrier for the rotor on the other side, but I'm getting pretty close to getting the rear wheel finished up. After that I'll be able to set the jackshaft and then it'll be getting pretty close to test ride time once I get the frame welded out.

I'm not sure, but don't ask Brodie.

Sensational, this is going to be good  ;D
Got the extra gussets cut on the waterjet. I still have to roll them to match the radius, but it should stiffen this thing up pretty good.

I figure that if you manage to use at least one bolt, nut, or SOMETHING (even a ball bearing!) from the Rupp you'll be golden!

Haha, good idea. I'll see what I can swipe off it to keep the rupp cred.

I suppose, in a pinch, if you had a repop sticker made that says "Oddster" or "S'upp" or something similar it MIGHT suffice...   ::)

I have the half rusted through rear fender of my first Z50A on my custom built one. It is the only original part on it but it is still a Z50A
