I played around with the fzr front forks and brakes a little to get measurements for spacers

after doing this same brake swap on my rd there is no other choice when it comes to brakes. something about those rotors aginst a spoked wheel found a place in my heart haha
 
Re: 1974 t500 cafe build

How does the fzr triple fit in the t500 frame tube ? Do you need to modify the length at all? Also, is that a gt500 front hub or a xs650 hub you're using with the rotors? Wondering about the hole spacing.

that is a xs wheel in the picture but ill check the hole spacing with a gt500 front that i have if you want and the triple is gonna take a little work hopfully just different bearings
 
Ill get you guys the info your after but i want to post the pictures of tonights progress. i finished the fork swap i still need to fit a steering lock and stop then its on to the wheel and rotors. Every thing was done with a mixture of rd and xs bearings it almost like fzr were made for suzuki parts bikes

Nice progress, nice to see you've started using people(useless Bunch). What kind of welder are U using on the People? Gas torch?,.....Mig? They look really nice Tig perhaps?
 
well with the aid of a blender. No wait im not gotta give all my secrets alway
.



Its more of a paste that i paint the frame with.that all im given up
 
I recommend a urethane clear over the top. I don't think flesh is very uv/chemical resistant.

thats a double edge blade if i spray urethane to protect the flesh from uv rays im in fact taking a wrecking ball to the same o zone that let in the uv rays. damit. I may just take the high road and rub it down with baby seal blood, can we all agree that baby seals have gotten away with to much for to long. Not so cute now are ya baby seal!
 
I kinda like the long swingarm, it has that late '70s drag-bike look.
 
Work will begain on this old cunt this week the rd is useable the resto is well on its way im gathering parts for a mild t500 so there is not a whole hell of alot stopping me from working on this
