http://www.thefactorymetalworks.com/The_Factory_Metal_Works_Hardtails_s/46.htm and http://www.tcbroschoppers.com/index.php/universal-hardtail-kit.html I know there are places that will pre-weld a Universal hardtail into your spec then send it out to you. All you gotta do from there is weld it...

That helps alot thanks man!

Think you could snap a couple shots of that lower dogbone setup for me? I am trying to decide how to build the lower mount onto my frame. You're seat design looks like it could easily have a tube ran horizontally through it to work as a mounting position for the shock bracket, but its good the...

FINALLY got more stuff! Wheel got here, pivot bolt TIG'd together for the proper length, DOM 1" steel tube got here for the seat, and I pulled the motor out this morning to give myself some more working room when the welding starts. As far as the seat goes im still really undecided about how...

Whats the swingarm off of that youre using? Does it use linkage for the monoshock? Just wondering how you mounted the linkage to the xs400's frame if you had to deal with linkage

Is that shock going to travel ok? It might just be the picture but it looks like it mounts at a odd angle thats gonna put alot of stress on that upper mount. Seat looks killer!

You just became my new best friend! Im doing the same style swap with an xs400. Your setup looks spot on!

This is wicked. Small metric bikes going hard tail is always good. Motivation for me to get my cb360 hardtailed

Tank 2 for sure! That art work is too bad ass not to use!

Using screwdrivers as a temporary pivot bolt ;D I was really hoping that I would get the bolt back by today seeing as I leave for california for 4 days tomorrow. Going to order some DOM tubing this weekend so I can start building the new subframe. Been pouring over Millenium Falcons build...

semi decent picture of whats been cut off so far.

Got all my parts in! My two pivot bolts are currently getting welded together (now I can blame someone else when it snaps! ;D) so tomorrow I should be able to see how much play there is around the finished bolt. Millennium Falcon: Your build has been a HUGE help and and HUGE inspiration for me...

I know there are alot of rockers in the 503 area what with Rockers NW im just wondering if we have any folks living in good ol' vancouver. Sometimes im not trying to cross the river to ride, weve got good roads up here too!

Majority of the parts are ordered! First pivot bolt arrived, looks like itll be pretty easy to chop 2 of them and weld back together for the length.
