Well Guys! I'M BACK! I can't believe it has been about 6 years since I had to shelve the project. After a lot of drama and getting kicked when your down I am in a much better place to start up the project again. I brought the frame, motor, tank and seat out of storage the other day. It was the...

Hey guys. I had to shelve the project for a bit. I have a job with a company you may have heard of. Its called RevZilla.com. The move from rural VA to inner City PA has been a challenge but the bike and bits are in storage and I swear to make progress as soon as I possibly can. I think about...

Thanks Roc C! Now I can sleep at night until I get another harebrained question.

Well guys, Its been a hell of a long time since I've had a chance to actually do any work to the bike but to all kinds of unforeseen circumstances. Since I last posted its been moved 3 times and now will probably be moved again as I have been offered a job in PA working for Revzilla. But over...

when everything else is gone I can still find ammo!

Super cool idea!

Hey tobydmv! Could you post a pic of it mounted please. Just so I can get an idea of size and look. Do you think I could use this for indicators provided I went with lower intensity led's?

Hey M511y. What battery did you end up with and do you have any feedback?

I gotcha now. Thanks so much for the clarification 50gary. I really appreciate it.

and all 3 bits are supposed to magically sit there and hold your front end on because its clamped around the forks?
