OK here's some pictures of the tank that Pop's is fabbing up for the chassis...

Nice.

 

[canyoncarver]

Wow. Signed on.

 

[orlowskij]

Good shit man.

 

[mydlyfkryzis]

Whats the capacity (approx) on that tank?..Looks great. Looks like you could make an even larger tank by going higher and extending the range....

That tank is pretty.

 

[Wangofree]

This bike just keeps getting better and better.

 

[Treesus]

Wow. Can't believe I've missed this until now.

A video of that engine running would be glorious. (hint, hint) ;D

 

[cyclhed]

The frame has been finish welded and painted. We'll get a video of the engine running as soon as it's back together.

 

[ABCanuck]

Goodness gracious. Of all the dramatic things I've ever seen..........

 

[CarbsAndCylinders]

Wow, wow, wow!

I forgot to mention something, WOW!!!

 

[Sonreir]

Love red frames.

 

[GmanGS450]

HOLY HOT SAUCE! that is looking great! How many hours of design work do you have in that frame. Did you use any CAD to help develop your idea, run any FEA on it. This thing must be better than a stock frame and almost every way, it would be nice to have some tangible numbers to hold over HONDA's head. "a little personal victory"

 

[gas_fiend]

damn that is pretty. +1 on the want to hear it run

 

[shoom]

A weber DCOE carb would look nice if it fits inside those frame rails

 

[crazypj]

May as well use a bucket with a hole in it if all you want is people to look at it ;D

With all the love and money and effort you guys put into this, i do not understand for the love of god why you put the rearsets on the swinger. It'll ride shit, you will be sick in 10 minutes because your feet location does not correspond with the seat. Your mind does not get it and will think your on a boat. Its like sea sickness.

it looks nice though

whats worse, is the foot peg is on the moving swingarm, and the brake pedal is in a fixed position. As you put on the brakes and the nose dives, your foot changes position relative to the brake. that will make it harder to control.

No excuse either, as the frame is custom built. Accommodations for rearsets could of been built into the frame. It not like having to work around the factory limitations.

Maybe there's a plan yet unrealized...

 

[rockcitycafe]

uhm... just noticed something... peculiar... what's the wheelbase and trail? and if you know, what are they based on? to me it looks like an ultrashort wheelbase and very very low trail due to the stock offset clamps and what looks to be about a 20' rake... if you hit the brakes, it looks like it would almost go to negative trail... that's bad last time I checked

Wow, indeed. i had not even noticed that. I sure hope they used an old frame to set the jig.
