Frame done, front end should be on in the next couple of days. Just sorting out bearings for the stem.
I weigh 200lbs, what’s the thoughts on fork oil weight? I’m going standard front end with progressive springs.
Fork tubes straightened today.

Awesome build.
Bit more done, waiting on parts again now.
Still looking good!

Still slow going here. Got my engine top end all assembled and realised the piston is the wrong size, new one on its way from the supplier. They must have picked up the wrong one off the shelf as they did the bore.
Found a shift spindle and shifter, waiting on that.
Got the front assembled and the hub has been cut down 50mm on the disc side! Love previous owners. One on its way now.
Stella are making the swingarm now, so hopefully by the end of may it’ll be close to done.
Trx450r axle and parts all coming together.
Looks like you're going with a hydraulic clutch? Is it a Magura? Which slave cylinder model are you using?
Hey mate, I’m using a Clake Two lever on this one. It’s a combined clutch and rear brake lever. When you engage the rear brake the clutch gets pulled in as well, how much, or if at all depends which cams you fit in the lever. Had it laying around, should make wheelies fun.
It’s using a Magura hydraulic piston and it’s directly driven off the lever master.

Swingarm just finished up Fab, new piston finally on the way from CT and found a good shifter rod. Should be back to building soon.
Wow, those look amazing!

Engine set except my shift rod which is on the way. Should be in the frame soon.
That looks awesome!

Bit more progress today, received my shift rod and managed to close up the motor and get it fitted to the frame.
Magura slave looks to fit perfectly.
Electrics tidied and refitted. Front end should be on tonight all going well.
Swingarm finally left the states today. Just need to order an intake boot for the air striker and it should be running fairly soon.

Which magura slave did you use? Part number? Retracted and extended length?
