Looks good! I think your missing a few pictures tho!

 

[topscrt]

what pics. i'm lost?

He means along the way during the project

Did you do the math to know that the spring rate in the shock will work on the bike?
How about math with the angles that the forces transfer along?
Was that shock off a bike with no linkages?

 

[surffly]

Is there enough room for swing arm to move with out hitting the frame? Might just be the picture


Also might want to read the fork brace thread here

 

[topscrt]

the top section curves in and doesn't hit the frame. it took me 3 months and @ 5 samples to get the right angle/ room to have the shock to work. the shock is alittle hard right now but no biggie. it's off a 2008 R1

 

[topscrt]

what fork brace thread? i can't find it

 

[Big R]

I think it's in the "lounging in the club" section. Something along the lines of "Fork braces: are they necessary?"

And I think your front tire is mounted backwards. The 18" Avon's have "forward/rearward" mounting arrows.

Just meant everyone would like to see some pictures of the process that brought you where you are now. thanks

Your build is looking great.
Have you seen Kileys mono 360 cafe (Gretta)? Shes pretty wild looking. Also, there are a couple more cafe mono 360s on here. So, there is no lack of experience on here if you have a question.
Is this gonna be your official build thread?..if so I will bookmark it so I can keep up.
