    WTF? Behind glass? With 10K in the suspension i hope he actually rides it... Would you buy a new pick-up and not drive it? Or build a new house and not live in it? Its just money, may as well enjoy it if you've got it...

    This bikes a rider, $18000.00 = 9000 UK POUNDS = a Ducati, hayabusa, ect,ect,

    Or to put it another way "How much would a Pro Series Quad cost you guys?", this bike is basically a race quad with one wheel.

    Well spotted young man!, when i post the next set of pics i will explain the problem you have pointed out, and how i got around it.

    Like all custom builds, or as am sure your aware, even fitting an aftermarket part to your bike sometimes requires tweeking of some description.

    This was one of the reasons for the mock up, to iron out these small alterations.

    Sometimes it can be real frustrating doing this type of work because lots of things dont fit the way I WANT THEM TO, but i usually just walk away, have a cup of tea, think about it , and go back in an hour or so and engineer a solution.

    Thank you for the compliment, your obviously paying special attention to this build , i think you'll like the final bike!

    Cheers,

    G.

    This is my favorite part of a build-up... That is why custom builds IMO are so much more fun than restos... I love seeing creative solutions to problems... It really helps me with my own projects
