I find it amazing that my phone takes better pics than my camera does.  .
Mocked up the bike last night and took some pics today with my phone.

I like the possibilities so far 
Can you provide some detail on the rear wheel? Is it stock? Aftermarket? What size? Any special kit required to make fit it?

The rear wheel is an original 16" Harley Davidson 40 spoke. My bike had a 16" rear tire and, as far as I know most newer model Sporty's have a 16" rear tire too so no mods required there. As a matter of fact, the rotor from my old rear rim is going on the new one.

Not really certain of the capacity of the tank, and I wont know until the first time I fill it. Looks as big as the original though, and yes that is the stock speedo, I found the dash on ebay, unfinished, no holes.

Had a difficult time locating a caliper that would fit the forks, so I made a bracket and used the original. [IMG]  [/IMG]
now I just have to get it powder coated. After this the front end will be done, on to relocating the coil. |
