Re: Brat/ Bob

Well I got to go to the garage today and get a little done . Got the rear fender mounted and then played around with 2 tanks .

Fender mounted

I'm starting to like this tank

and the original tank and side cover . Kinda thinking of going this way , but then again who knows that could change in an hour LOL

Re: Brat/ Bob

Lookin' good man. The fender is really clean. Still interested to see the rear suspension on this thing... And for what its worth, the red tank is 100% better than the stock one.

Re: Brat/ Bob

The machine is looking awesome!!! Im starting to look into raking the front end on mine. I would like to make a lot of front end changes on mine though.

Re: Brat/ Bob

I also agree with the red tank! Looks cool. 8)

Re: Brat/ Bob

Trek ..... I'm pretty much gonna leave the front alone for now .

Bruno..... Thats what I'm gonna go with . After the opinions of many and staring at the pics of both tank setups I agree with everyone on the red. Thanks

Re: Brat/ Bob

i like a stock front end. I think it's coming along great. Your setup is what I had in mind if I ever get back to my bike...but since I'm a daily rider I can't bring myself to make any changes. Can't wait to see the progress on this. I also agree with Mike, the red tank looks great on here.

Re: Brat/ Bob

Havent had a chance to work on it in a while . Tonight I got to set up the rear shocks to see what they will look like . On the top there is a plate about a half inch thick I am going to weld to the frame . On the bottom I cut the mount off the bottom of the old shock and I'm gonna weld that to the swing arm . Hopefully I can do this soon . Here is a pic of what I'm talking about .

Re: Brat/ Bob

Nice. Following this one.

Re: Brat/ Bob

This is going to be cool. I wish my welding was up to par enough to try something like that. Keep up the good work!
