Is there anything you can't do mate? Absolute genius.

i can't do plastic, air brush and can't walk on water lol
thanks Si bloody pleased to hear

[Surt]

runner bungs r made from stainless



been choosing rear sets, those i like the best, neither too primitive nor too complex, i looked through hundreds on ebay, from cb400's to busa's
quite symbolic that those r from zxr1000 so i bought the rear brake master cylinder from the big ninja as well





the quality is perfect and just $138!
gunna replace adapter plates for mine own though

[Surt]

let's tank!

[Surt]

and welded... the frames welded around as well, at long last



showing off with a perfect allignment

what this man said

[Surt]

thanks heaps mates, i like, too, how it's turned out with the old russian Kovrovets tank and old kaza (sounds same with a 'she-goat' in russian lol)'s frame, never done it before, i mean bracing and knee cut-outs in a steel tank. must say that a steel sheet is easier stuff for shaping than ally just because its thinner

undertray/seat/toolbox combo (lol) mounts



decided to cut off the rear section for a few reasons and behold it is very good



ust mounts welded



rear sets adapters mockup, just a mock up
feels comfortable





zorst flanges from stainless





a runner mock up, noticed it runs too close to the frame tubes, taken into concideration

[MattyDucati]

Mate your builds are a great read. Keep up the good work

[xa-mont]

what are you using for the runner mock up?

[GammaBoy]

Looks like foam pipe lagging and gladwrap?

[Surt]

yup and ally wire

more than words lol

[Surt]

Mate your builds are a great read. Keep up the good work

thanks mate im mostly talking in pictures tho bahaha

[Surt]

1st mockup and fuckup, trial and error, mid section is 35 mm short



gunna use the faulty runner as a sample for other runners

the angles r perfect tho

[Gix11]

Unreal! You bent those angles spot on.

[ALBI]

as usual mate great work .
what type of welder you using ?

[Surt]

Unreal! You bent those angles spot on.

yup especially given the fact that i bend them with an old electric tube bender, very powerful but with just 2 buttons 'forwad' and 'backward' and huge inertia. so i usually bend them less than i need and then put a long tube on the pipe i bend, and then bent it manually to the needed angle (still on the tube bender)

as usual mate great work .
what type of welder you using ?

a chinese tig welder mate
