Saw this today while listing a bike for sale. As an EMT I'm afraid I'll end up at the scene of this accident.

So this probably should have been in the last post but I didn't get to it Sunday as I was helping my buddy teach his girlfriend how to ride. so less time to dedicate to the bike. One issue I had when I bought the bike was the sad state of the wiring harness. Between wire nuts, crimp connectors...

It's been a while, Supermoto season has me focused on the track bike and with odd jobs coming in and the horrid humidity it's been unpleasant to say the least when it comes to working on the bike. So what have I managed to accomplish? well I painted a few bits and made some brackets for the...

Deviant, part of circle track and super kart design is chassis flex, they're actually designed to lift the inside rear wheel when turning. this is necessary to counter the under steer presented with the solid rear axle. The same thing happens on an ATV with a solid axle but under different...

So my least favorite game by far is "sit and wait for parts" especially when a long weekend comes and you're wanting to make progress. I did get other goodies but one of the items I was really hoping would show up didn't show. So Daytona 955i Rear shock showed up this week, also had to order a...

The holiday is the worse time to get parts in I didn't really get anything done. Super boring update, I was working on making a tool roll for the bike but I ran into technical difficulties halfway through the process, I'm going to use an antique phrase "Gotta call the sewing machine repairman...

the XV920RH was available in the US, only in 81-82 though. All 81's are chain drive. Parts showed up this weekend but my sunday was cut out due to problems at work and me being the lucky guy on call. I'll have pictures once I'm able to do something with them. So, This evening I spent some...

These came off of my 1983 Honda COM400T I was asking $50 + shipping on them but any reasonable offer will be considered. I'm located in Virginia Just north of Virginia Tech

The CM based builds are the ones surprising me the most lately. Really like the way you're going with this can't wait to see more!

Sunday Updates :D So I've been helping my brother with his foxbody mustang which has kept my busy this week parts actually came in but I haven't bothered with it because I've been busy. last sunday I picked a wheel up from a friend of mine from a fixerup SV650 that's on hold for a while he was...

That's really quite impressive, these bikes aren't usually on the receiving end of heavy conversion. That engine is definitely a torquey lump though for it's size/weight. I hope to see your plans fully fleshed out. I have a feeling it will spark more people to start their own CM based build.

I put the front wheel up on the truing stand Tuesday evening and going to have to trash it. Wheel isn't true so I'm off hunting for another option. That's not all, one thing I noticed was the front end sitting awfully low when I had it back on it's wheels I kickstand was hitting the ground at 4...

Some of you might have seen my overly ambitious attempt at a hybrid build so after thinking about it for a while I decided to shelve the CB750 build for a while and focus on something simpler. I've been considering doing an XV for a while but every one for sale around here was a shaft drive...

I found this to be odd compared to how sportbikes are setup... the big one is for the suspension linkage and the smaller one is for the swingarm pivot... And Just a little further and it'll be a roller!

I'd like to introduce this fun little bike I bought on a whim. It's a 1996 Kawasaki KLX 650 C (Road Legal) I bought this from a fellow out in the sticks, a good several miles on a gravel back road. out into the heart of virginia. He was looking to part with it to help fund his 50's Chevy Truck...

So it's been a wile, that's for sure. my second R6 and the CR60 got in the way a bit so I opted to give it to the CR60 a friend after I damaged the impossible to replace timing pickup on it riding it like a tard. He's since managed to get it running by swapping electrics in from a later model...

Hills, All possibilities have been considered, due to the mono shock rear and the air box requirement with the CBR600 motor Its an unfortunate scenario, but I will not be wasting this steel. The tubes that make up the frame now will be turned into a spool stand, a heavy one, but a stand no less.

have you ever had one of those moments, where you're packing all of your things and you manage to fit 20lbs into a 10lb bag and you're super proud of yourself only to find you still have 10lbs more to shove into that bag? Short story... I kinda let the radiator issue sit on the back burner, I...

GnarlieCharlie sent me my carbs back from cleaning. Going to need them soon to mock up the custom airbox I'm sure some one is wondering how I'm going to solve this little number that just about every one who does this front end swap runs into... I could always just run a single nut with...

Wanna sell the frame+ title?
