servus,

here are the button twins!

servus,

and now solo:

Sick work, Jim. As always.

Can you give some details on the parts you used?

my balls hurt just looking at it!  You wearing an athletic supporter (cup) when you ride it or will you be talking about 2 octaves higher after a 5 minute ride?

I dont think you'll have any clearence issues.... Good god that thing looks like its pointing at the moon. I like the look but the tails a liitle high to me.

+1

I think the tail would look and feel much better if it was mounted in a more shallow angle, but I guess it's a part of the whole European street-fighter theme.

Other than that, I love every bit of it.

Jim, what sort of frame mods were necessary to fit the R1 swingarm?

kinda reminds me of a cat with its arse in the air... lol. I think the angle compared to the tank is just about spot on, I think its the shock or the dogbones that throws it so far in the air. see the angle of the bottom of the frame. Like I said before I still like it but just a little awkward looking to ride looks painfull, not to mention the angle of the shifter. Jim, have you ridin it any yet? Just wondering how it feels.

servus,

thanxx for +1.

the tail is coming deeper, when i have the new dogbones!

there no modifications at the frame. i1m live in germany!

the mod is in front of the r1 swingarm. thats a lot of work, because the original swingarm is very wide in the front. the next problem was to fit the rear wheel kompatible with the brake and chain.

@chanse: no riding yet, possible in a few weeks.


now the new exhaust from the eightball:



better pics next week.

servus,
i´ve modified the bsm exhaust a little bit!



and



and a new 2 - 2 exhaustsystem is still on work.

servus,

here is the last picture with the long frontend and headlight.



the new frontend is 2" shorter and the headlight is a singleheadlight in chrom.

in the next 2 week i have new pictures for you.

so long.

I'd have to say that is the coolest waste of money I have ever seen!

Very Very nice craftsmanship!

Good to see you are still building Jim. 

Many props. Imagine what he could do with an SV.

servus,

here the 1first pic from the new frontend:



better pics coming on monday.

I wish I had 1/4 of your talent. I can only imagine what Flick could look like! I have thoughts but no artistic talents or money to have someone do it!

to you sir!
