    I am building these because I need the challenge for myself,, I am not in this sport for the money ,, I do what I do for the shear pleasure it gives my mind .. I LOVE what I do ,, and unlike a lot of others I fully enjoy sharing what I do with others ,, these are a test,, there are so many options for forks and shocks,, the first 3 will have oem Honda forks,, not inverted, and a Yamaha fully adjustable rear shock,, these are easy to get and better quality than the Chinese pit bike parts available,,, this will keep the cost down for now..

    first of all kasey you are the man. i envy your fab skills. i have been all over the internet researching these full suspension atc70s and have come across so many that you have done. by far the best ones as well. keep up the good work.

    what does your jig look like for all of these parts? how are you making sure everything is straight and square??
    do you have a tube bender for making the frame backbone or are you having these made for you?
    what size rectangle tubing are you using? 2x1? 12 gauge?
    also how are you creating the brake rotor hub?
    do you have a lathe to create the steering stem tube and rear hub?

    and if you ever need some aluminum parts machined i can do that for you. i have a homemade cnc verticle milling machine in the garage. i have been making some atc70 triple clamps similar to the old a+ ones.. if you need some for these new bikes your working on i would love to provide you with some.
