    well Here it is!!!! Finally a roller!!! NOT HAPPY with the powder coater.... first of all the spray gun sparked and caught the oven on fire!!! fire department and all! burned up the spray gun and the oven!! saved the frame some what... got black spots in the clear coat.. He told me that they could be buffed out but if i had more time i would sandblast it again and use paint!...This is the last time i use powder coat!!! Not to mention too mutch clear coat..every time i tighten a nut the clear cracks and flakes off ...But pressed for time to get it to dyno port so on with the build!

    so tell me what ya think so far....

    YES! YES! YES! it should!!! Glad I didnt go with that costum drag axel, That was even narrower not to mention $500 compaired to $100 blaster axel..

    If you look at the vert pick of the front end right behind the radator mount you can see on the frame where the flames hit the clear coat. kinda blackish..Hopeing when its all together I can barely see it ....

    Hey RON,,, Just want to say your stuff is simply awsome!!!! That stuff sets this bike off!!!
