Wow that is looking nice
I hope you have some billet parts in that engine , because any talk of removing the govenor can get you banned on this site

Banned for removing the governor ??? Why ? Is that against this site rules ?

The removal or modification of govenors is not talked about in open discussion on the forum by penalty of banning , what you or I choose to do in the privacy of our own shops is our own business lol

Not finished yet but here is few more pics. They show pretty much what it will look like.

 

[buckeye]

Nice, real nice.:thumbsup:

 

[LowandWide]

Thats just the perfect seat for it.

If you find it to be underpowered (with the large tires) try a torque converter.

Looks excellent though.

OK ! it as been a while since my last update. Not completely done yet, but NOT much to to before I can ride it ! :thumbsup:

Since I started it , I saw several othersstyles and colors and now after having seen a couple , I want BAD to give it a MILITARY look so as soon wheather allows me, I want to strip it down and paint it Military Olive drab green and flat black. But for now here it is !!

Yes there is one between the exaust and the rear rack.

I am now working on a new metal front fender. I still have to reshape the front and rear of it .

i have some 1/8th stainless sheet i will try to make fenders out of. did you put on the bend/rolled edges yourself? figured hammer/dolly/pipe will get it close to presentable.
