  1. Sounds like you have the skills, my only thought is that you should make all new ones with better joints or just save yourself the headache and get two inch offset rims.
  2. If you use the stock carrier you will need a new break line, however if you upgrade to a roundhouse carrier you should be able to use the stock line being that the caliper gets re-located to a more forward postion.
  3. just do the mirror image of xblessed with death's bike. that would look tight
  4. lets see it with the colors on the tank shroud reversed, red with black decals.
  5. I wish I'd seen that before I powdercoated my frame. Great idea.
  6. http://s511.photobucket.com/albums/s357/martin-pics1/ Here are some grab bars I'v been working on with recessed tail lights

    a-arm dust sleeve

    lost one of the stock a-arm dust sleeve during re-build. Anyone have one??
  8. chromed mine. The chroming tank is only about 98 degrees so it doesn't hurt the ball joints.
  9. so what are you lookin for?? Let's not talk cost of materials, how much time do you think it takes to recess that light into the tubing while making sure the structural integrity is not lost? I simply offered it as an option bro.
  10. per some requests I'm making about thirty of these with the tail light recessed into the bar, $140 black powder coated
  11. one trick you might try when installing your bearings is to put them in a freezer for a few hours and your swingarm in the sun for the same. bearings will slightly shrink and swinger will expand.
  12. As long as there still in good shape use the stock ones.
  13. so how much abuse did it take before it broke?
  14. ya, I just purchased a podos racing swingarm off e-bay for $425 shipped. It included the round house carrier and was chromed. They also custom made it with a 3" extension instead of a standard 4" for no additional charge.
  15. You might check the intake manifold and make sure it doesn't have any cracks or leaks. Happened to mine once and fried the motor before I realized it

    next

    where did you get the chain tensioner and does it work as well as it looks like it would?
  17. are you running a boost bottle or stock balance tube?
  18. I'll go for the blindly obvious. What ratio are you mixing your fuel at?
  19. I only think aluminum can be anodized, these are made of steel.
  20. Going with a slightly larger diameter tubing in order to better recess the light. The light itself is costructed with a high impact lens, metal housing and can easily be replaced for under $25.
  21. gona make about twenty or thirty of these but it'll take at least a couple of weeks to get all the materials in. so when I get a few completed I'll re-post with close-up pics. Thanks for the great feedback guys.
  22. sure, I'll have to make one up first and take some more pics, sold this one to my brother. you'll be able to see it better if it's bare metal anyway.
  23. I can put one or two flag mounts, your choice. The light I use is a three wire so you would have a running light as well as a break light.
  24. probably around $120. unfinished, $140 powdercoated and would have to get you a price if you wanted it chromed. I'm not really set up to do a mass quanity of these but I could do a few of them.
