Man oh man those are some rear-sets. Nice work! Are you cutting the plate all by hand etc. or do you have fancy tools at your disposal? Either way it looks great - hope it works as well as it looks.

wow that is awesome. I love the shifter linkage setup. that is a NICE front end too.
I have a CX500 that I ride every day, but it is mostly stock and the front suspension and brakes are one of the weakest links on the bike. I cant wait to hear how it handles with a modern package like that.
keep it up!
