What are the swingarms you determined that will fit with minimal modifcation? Any aluminum options?

It is a really fun ride. I haven't done a top speed pull yet, but i've had it to 70 and it seemed like there was more left in the bucket. I did the pan and foam while GS Upholstery in Millersville, MD did the tuck roll.

Re: Honda SL200 Mini Starting to wrap things up, just a good deal of reassembly and tweaking. Its really small when you're up close or sitting on it. Yet, feels to be really solid and rigid, not like the shock are oversprung, but that there's no flex in the frame or front end or components.

Re: Green SL200 Mini Starting to get down to the last few bits. Tank is painted, I went with red (pics next time) Seat is nearing completion (anyone know a good upholsterer in the B'more/DC area?) Rear wheel aligned and spaced and calipered Wiring in and mostly hooked up I am 6'1" so here's...

Re: Green SL200 Mini Thanks guys. Those forks are marzocchi clones from china, about 27in long with 4-5in of travel.

Re: Green SL200 Mini Hey all, here's a little update on the mid size. Its coming along slowly but most of the worst is done. - everything thats getting PC'ed is done - electrics are all sorted, fingers crossed - motor is rebuilt, painted, wired - front end is coming together - instruments...

Re: Mean Green SL100 Mini Bomber Hey. Yea, I brought him everything disassembled but with new valves and seals. I asked him to recut the valves seats and bore the cylinder to match the piston i handed to him. He gave me everything back assembled and I put the new top-end on at home...

Re: Mean Green SL100 Mini Bomber I dunno bud, I havent spoken to him in months but that number from Maps is the one I called.

Re: Mean Green SL100 Mini Bomber So there's a little place in North Baltimore that did my work. https://goo.gl/maps/z9RXWstnaAA2 Otherwise you could call up Powroll and Jerry will let you know what's what. https://goo.gl/maps/UMEyts9cQao Thanks, its real slow going during the semester but...

Re: Mean Green SL100 Mini Bomber I have made a little bit of progress on this build. Have all the wheel spacers made and the front and rear brake hangers fabbed as I am going with Brembo 84mm crabs instead of the KTM calipers I originally had. This means I had to switch out for larger brake...

Re: My Very 1st: 1978 CB125S I love these bikes, perfect for around-town tomfoolery. Nice find and restoration. If you ever get bored of that 125cc you can bolt an XR200 motor in there will only a very little bit of work.

Re: Mean Green SL100 Mini Bomber - reamed the axle tube to accept a 14mm axle, which is what this cb175 swinger needs to work with my frame - found some shocks - finished the motor and fitting/bracketing - tryin out the exhast I think I like the low straight the best.

Re: Mean Green SL100 Mini Bomber I got a few more bits to move ahead with motor is starting to come together. Finally got the machine work done and back. High comp piston, new cam and new valves little battery to keep the lights on.

SL125 frame The SL100/125s are pretty cool imo 330mm shock, 700mm front forks, 16 inch rims CB160 swingarm to get a little more length over stock Not crazy about the mags Found these 3.00x14 spoke rims on aliexpress I went with 120/80-14s front and rear The front end is from some pit...

Really interesting build man. I really want you to figure all the turbo kinks out. Hopefully this plenum version will help
