To answer a few questions, the tubing is 3/4 and 1/2 inch. The forks are 1/2 pipe. The front brakes assist the clutch brake, it will not stop you. I like the feel of two brakes.....:grind:

I took a piece of 3/8 inch rod, tapped a 1/4-20 hole in the end.



It goes over one of two studs to hold on the clutch cover and holds on the clutch brake as a stud.




I fabbed the clutch cover this time with a service cover......but I ran out of 16 gauge steel so I used an old brass kick plate off a door.




I decided to buff the steel and brass and clear coat them.

I am definitely asking for permission to steal that brake idea, was wondering about front brakes for mine, but never though of braking the clutch bell
Sweet:thumbsup:

dont take it negative but i have to say the proportions on that chopper say the current rear axle location should be th pick up point for a swing arm. still badass though.:thumbsup:
