My bike is gonna look similar to cavis. i dont weld so i have to go a different route on the mounting. cool build.

Something about the front brake was bugging me so I decided to try something a little different...

I would think it wont affect the handling at all. But make sure the tire is turned to rotate the right way.
The thing is if the wheel had an offset with respect to the fork leg, you can put it in the back and get it to handle better.
Cool.

12 bloody hours later and this is all I have to show for the rear half of the wiring. It looks like all I've done is shortened the wires for the rectifier and isolated the wires I need from the stock harness. It's madness. It's like the true definition of insanity. 12 hours later and it's like I'm in the same spot doing the same bloody thing.

I had this piece of stainless in my box at work so I just cut a hole in it. It's ugly, it's off-center but as long as that solenoid was gone, I really don't care what it looks like. It's hidden under the tank anyways. Off: On:

Hey man, nice work...
curious what your thoughts are on that Master Cylinder?

I'm looking to clean up my bars, get rid of the stock slab on there now...
but from what I'm reading you need to beware of ratio differences in the pistons, more frequent refills, etc.

Did the previous owner crash that bike?
The MC might be the reason. Wink

Turn on, Tune up, Rock out!

I haven't ridden the bike yet so I can't comment on the brakes. I didn't buy this bike for performance anyways so it's not my concern.

The kid who owned it before me said a car cut him off and he washed out the front and slid into it. I'm not sure what that is supposed to tell you - the bike was bone stock when he dumped it.
