Have made some progress.. had a little lull for the holidays but getting back on her this weekend to make some progress!

Yeah, that's cool! dig it

Need some pics or more details.. spacers ya might need to cut one side or the other or both to get it lined it up properly but it should be pretty much a bolt in..

That is a cool chop! Still rounding up some parts for mine but I ended up picking up a set of the P&P springers with the twisted upper on the left in this pic.. thought you'd like the old pics/info!

Then they simply won't match if you swap engines.. not a requirement that they do, most states simply require a serial number of some sort on the frame itself..

Check your state laws you may not need to find another with a title.. i have the same problem with mine but i've got two options..i dunno which i'm going with... one is to get the serial number of the engine i'm using actually etched onto an Amen Savior plate (which are avail on line) and the...

Yeah I ended up burying the battery in the swingarm and all the electronics in a little box behind the plate holder in between the shock mounts to hide it and to leave that whole area free for the bag...

Oh yeah it's a trip to run 80+ on a bike that feels like a mini bike.. only issues I'm really having with it is I've only got the pull of the push pull throttle system installed and it sticks or is slow to come off of throttle... may put the other one on eventually but for now I just deal with...

I'll give them a good look over.. i haven't seen the bike up close yet as i had a buddy pick it up for me so i didn't lose it.. Plan on powdercoating those guys once i get a disc brake figured out which should be quite the pain in the butt with the way the rear end floats... I'm realling...

Greetings from Whidbey island..

Did to have to re-jet at all? Got mine done and may have over baffled to some degree but didn't have any issues with jets

Knew I'd seen that before somewhere.. http://motosynthesis.blogspot.com/p/products.html

Take a look at classified Moto, they use R6 mostly, it really depends on what you want for a look.. I built the walking dead bike clone but had to buy the upper triple and had those guys press in my stock (91 nighthawk) stem into the R6 lowers.. was going to stick a cbr600 front end on my 77...

The new toy I had a buddy pick up for me last week... Already doing renders to see which direction I want to go in.. Old school chop or a bobber.. undecided yet but can't wait to get wrenching!

Like i don't already have too many but couldn't resist this early Amen Savior frame with 10 spoke Invaders... Have a 71 SOHC that will be going into her... Havent figured out quite yet if i'm going old school chop or just keep it in the bobber shape it is in now.. When i can sit in the garage...

Went to clean up the carbs on a new (to my buddy) '75 CB750 Chopper and the low jet is mucked up in the body.. not sure if it can be saved or not but in the mean time looking for the carb body as well! Touch base please if anyone has one or knows someone who does, many thanks! Shannon

New project getting closer to coming together.. 77 K7, CBR600 front end, CB500X rear end which I'm either going to shorten a bit or just go in a different direction.. I'm not crazy about the length of the arm after doing a render (although not to scale).. but getting closer!

Havent played with mine yet but I'm going to put them where I want them on the frame.. use existing mounting points where I can to ensure the linkage is fine etc and build it as necessary..

Out of curiosity what year motor are you needing? I've got a couple and always run across them just south of the border from you..

No worries, I've used that a lot to find the specific part numbers then start pinging ebay or the web for the specific part number you need for a better price.. yup, I'm a cheapskate lol Welcome aboard.. lots of good peeps and info here!

For an 82 CB750C? Partzilla lists it as part of a set.. there is a guy that does Honda carbs that may have them singularly I'll see if I can find his info unless he see's this post and chimes in...

Yeah you definitely have to be careful with any power tools.. I actually used wire wheel in die grinder and a cutoff wheel, have to be very ginger to keep it from getting away from you.. i had a lot to take down in my case didn't want to mess around all day.. finish foam on the leather smoothes...

Free parts?!? I need this, and that.. and two of those.. I'm in!

I made a template out of cardboard and traced it onto a sheet of aluminum and bent it in a brake.. Very useful to have the frame close as you don't want to over do the bend.. nice and easy till it matches the frame well... Would definitely advise getting the tank figured out and the loop...

On Whidbey island, what is your ebay name?!?

Ha yeah, I'm hoping to get the frame bag at least started this week.. couple other small pieces I gotta wrap up but I've started buying parts for the '77 build now.. the running gear I'm using for this one is off the late model CB500X.. worried about the forks being longer as the bike is...

Just about done with the latest creation, have a few odds and ends to wrap up but its pretty much an exact replica... Anxious to get started on the '77 CB750 soon!

Hello all.. just about wrapped up with Daryl's bike off the Walking dead.. was fairly quick build.. have a whole new respect for people that do this regularly! Been bitten by the fabricating bug, picked up a '54 Harley Servicar that is going to be a similar build as the walking dead bike and a...
