Went for the FlyHammer rearsets which needed a tiny modification...they are wonderful quality and although I have not used them in anger as yet, I am pleased with the result.

Love what you have done there...looking great. Enjoy riding her.

Oh dear...has this become an ex-project now? Was interested in how this was shaping up as I am building my own V50 brat/cafe/tracker.

Some good work there Zach...how did you get that finish on your Brembos mate? This is what I went for in terms of rearsets... Don't know if this helps with an idea of positioning...this is my old man (6'3") sat on the bike at the weekend.

Nothing more to add at the moment Scott. I am just fabricating a mount for the rear light and Flat Tracker styled seat...Wiring continues to be sat in the background a little...more frequent updates are likely on my blog... http://motoguzziv50.wordpress.com/ Cheers

A little update... The wiring has started and is a slow process, mainly because I don't really know what I am doing!! Anyhow...This is where I am at... Indicators with LED bulbs have been fitted but not wired in as yet. The tank was blasted and powdercoated but unfortunately there was some...

Acewell do some nice gauges as well...watching with interest Zach!

Hi Steve The brake system will be put back on soon and I have decided to keep the linked brakes. I did think about de-linking them as it's not a system I am used to, but I have heard such good things about it that I am at least going to give it a try.

oh...shall bear that in mind...[reaching for the wet and dry] :D

Moved on a little since my last post...the engine is in the frame, the headbearings have been swapped and the forks placed in the yokes for alignment purposes for now. However, I couldn't help but mount the clipons and headlight brackets, with the headlight and now it is looking like a...

+1...enjoyed reading this and then....it stopped. i know some projects end up like that but this one was going at such a pace. hope all is well.

Am liking this...love the Brat look. Where will you be mounting the battery? Will you be going for a through the frame look for instance? I am trying to get advice on where/how I can mount mine in my cafe.
