I have not given up on that idea, thanks for the support. I dont have an english wheel, so I will have to Slap some metal into shape with a hammer. We will see how that goes....
The front wheel could be a little smaller I agree, I ordered the same dimesions as another build. They had tested it...
Thanks, guys!
Almost finished now, soon i will order licenseplates and start testing it.
The bike is a homage to the Fiat G91 of the Italian aerobatic team Frecce Tricolori.
I finally got the seatpad cut to size and made up some brackets for the Lafranconi’s.
The seat is made from 40mm closed cell foam, almost looks like alcantara.
Yes, clear as day. The bike is quite small and i am quite tall, so the angle is no problem. I did not want it to stick up too much above the triple tree to keep the profile of the bike low and sleek.
M unit blue hooked up and working great! Cool with keyless go and alarm system.
Next up is the ignition system, going to use original digiplex for now.
Unfortunately I had to strip the paint on the tank and start over as the paint cracked...:eek:
More soon:)
Some progress.
I got my revcounter/speedometer, made a deep bracket for it to mount it in a low position. Also made a little front fender and the seat is almost ready.

I lowered the fork today by 6 cm and it transformed the bike, it looks much better now.
I am going to remove the center stand, but keep the kick stand.
The height of the bike will not be much lower than original, but instead of low rear and high front it will be low front and high rear.
I Made some new brackets for the rear shocks, Now I’m happy with the rear height.
I still need to lower the fork, does any of you have some tips on how to do it? (1996 Nevada)
I also got started on the seat, hopefully it will come out ok...
I am at it again!
Removed all the electrics, i am going to start from scratch using Munit blue. With the electrics out of the wayi could remove all the tabs/brackets i dont use from the frame.
The wheels are finished so now it is 18” front and rear.
On the to do list is lower the front fork and...
