The white was purposefully done to tone down the gold. With the seat padding on and rims painted it will tone it down a bit further. Well, thats the plan anyway haha.

I'm thinking about putting a small fairing on, I just mocked this up in photoshop using the airtech AJSM4 Dunstall quarter fairing. Is anyone running one of these? I'd like to see it on a 750 if anyone has a pic.

Those were actually on the bike when I bought it. I just cleaned them up and replaced the foam. They're made by Lynx. I'll look for a model number on them.

The bike is mostly done now. I still need to make a seat pan, put new tires on, and fix the reg/rec wiring. Otherwise its running strong. I decided to make a steel gas tank that is hidden under the fiberglass shell. I couldn't get the fiberglass gas section to seal correctly, I think there...

Only a few new things going on, building a new gas tank from scratch is one of them. I couldn't get the gas section of the tank to seal correctly, tried a few times and decided I'd rather build a steel tank that will attach to the frame and sit under the shell of the fiberglass. The oil will...

I'm thinking about cutting the back of the seat bump on a radius like this but Im not sure yet. Got the tank all sealed up and holding fluids, gauge mounts are done, and figured out the headlight situation. Just need to clean it up a bit and put some tires on. Had to break the carbs down...

Thanks man! I'll have some updates on this one this weekend. I got it running now but it's not charging so theres that, and I need to re-lace the wheels and put new tires on. It's getting there....

I attached it with about 4 rivets. Just made a little L shaped bracket on back side of the fender.

I'm thinking you might want to coat that with some high heat paint just to keep it from rusting under the wrap. I dig that exhaust a lot, it interfered with the rear set on my project though.

Thanks! The battery is from dimecitycycles.com. it's actually a lithium battery like in a cell phone or cordless drill, so it holds its full charge for long periods of time. It's also made in the USA so that's always cool. Comes with some nice closed cell foam with adhesive backing for mounting...

Didn't get too much done this weekend. Took some time to seal the tank, and putting the new fork seals in wasn't too much fun either. Here's some more picks of the wiring. I still need to make a mount for the gauges and toggle switches I'm using for headlight and kill switch. Decided to get wild...

Got my battery today, it's pretty awesome. It only weighs 1lb. I've removed my starter and plugged the hole, and only running the absolute necessities electrically, so this should be plenty of juice. I should have my carb parts tomorrow, almost all the floats were in rough shape, had pinholes /...

Gonna have to figure out how Im mounting the speedo and what tach Im running before I finish up the wiring.

Thanks man. Its a little hard to keep clean but who cares.

I didnt get all the parts I ordered in for the weekend, so I just mounted the dampener and started running the wiring. I decided to make my own harness instead of trying to save the stock one. I'll have more pics of that next weekend. I made a bracket and welded it to the frame instead of...
