Looks WAY better. How did you mount the damper to your frame?

I used the stock horn mounting holes (I currently do not have a horn on the bike).

New gauge mount snugs things up nicely Justin.

Your linkage is packaged up and I'll get it to the post this week. I ended up turning a nice aluminum piece for you. The swivel end had a thumb nut to lock it to length and the clevis has a set screw that buts against the end of the threaded portion to lock it. Obviously the setscrew is a set and forget thing, but the other end will allow you to tweek it a bit. In the event that you need it shorter still, the set clevis end of the aluminum shaft can be cut back, maybe 3/8" or so. That will allow a huge swing at the lever end but I think you'll be able to adjust with what's there now.

You, sir, are one incredible individual.

 

[Swagger]

Naw...just another rider but thanks!

 

[JustinLonghorn]

So, this thread should probably be moved...

This winter, Darlin will become a totally different bike. And this is where it begins...

 

[valvesprung]

So effing easy riders awesome...can't wait for progress ;D

 

[VonYinzer]

You should see it in person... So badass.

Rusty Trombone or......The Dirty Sanchez!

Ya know, I've talked to you and Mike countless times about that frame + front end but havent actually seen it til now. Shame on me.

Know what would make that rusty frame totally bad-ass? A 68 cl175 tank!

 

[JustinLonghorn]

I just might take you up on that, sir.

 

[tWistedWheelz]

You already know what I want to say, so i will spare any more harassment here! ;D

[CresentSon]

Rusty Trombone or......The Dirty Sanchez!

I was thinking 'Tetanus Dilemma' or just 'Lock-Jaw'...

 

[Swagger]

HAHAHA

 

[JustinLonghorn]

I am still trying to figure out her name. I like the suggestions, keep em coming.

 

[VonYinzer]

Iron Maiden - The Trooper

or...

Search and Destroy

 

[JustinLonghorn]

Nothing new yet, I pick her up on Saturday.

I did buy a 21" front wheel.

 

[JustinLonghorn]

As most of you know, the frame/springer is now in my shed. It is a beautiful site.

The $29 Elsinore tank I ordered just arrived, so I snapped a couple of photos with it perched atop the frame. Enjoy!

This is all that remains of My Dearest Darlin...

That's a nice tank! I've been playing with small tanks for my SR project - still sorting something out. Maybe a 68 CL175 tank would be the right fit..... hmmmm.... where would I find something like that?

Ha, hit up Big Rich, I know he has one laying around. But something tells me you already knew that.
