yikes. that sucks, hopefully you can find a cheap set of brakes with the same size piston.

build looks to be pretty interesting, what components are you using exactly ? Mostly R6 stuff ?

I know it's off topic but what is that dirtbike in the background ?

So does putting the clip-on's under the top tree affect anything?

Nice. What are your plans with the engine?
Yes, that is a Single Sided Swingarm FZR600 that I built.

Something is lurking, waiting, wanting to be built......It calls to me from the darkness....

I can finally see the light at the end of the tunnel....Then I realize that it is the train coming to run my ass over....

I like that swinger on there. Is it mounted? Did you cut the frame or swinger?

Yes those are the cylinders of an engine that are damaged. The dirtbike in the back is a 70's era kd125 if i remember right. The swinger is kind of mounted, I'm waiting on new bearings, and need to see about the shock mount. I Cut the swingarm and ground on the frame.

Hey manveru, when we both get our bikes done we need to hit up Pueblo and give the track some FZR love!

doh! i was hoping nobody noticed my lazyness. Haven't really made any progress ready for picks yet. with some luck i will have the r1 front suspension on tomorrow. The only thing left on the swingarm swap is new bearings, and set the ride height for the shock mount, then put that on. Today i mounted pirellis on the rims and pressed out steering stems. Yes i know i've been lazy, but have also been helping my dad build a shed, those are my excuses and i'm sticking to them lol

sounds like you've been doing plenty. throw some pictures up of what you've accomplished so far and hell, even throw in the shed.
