Nice work Pete, I know what you mean by being inspired by other people's builds.
To make things tidier on the forum can you just add all the updates of your bike to your original post, makes it much easier to follow your build if its all on the one link.

Why do you have hoses in the end of your air pods?

what ive done is hooked up the engine breaters through 1 and 4 as not having pcv system hooked up will cause condensation in the engine,and i dont want my motor to die from not breathing properly,and getting moisture through it on short rides

hey pete why did you heat wrap ??? im a bit muffed as to why ,
its use was to wrap around a pipe that is hot to remove from an area that is heat sensative !
the prob i have is that it also crystalises the steel after a while!!

;)thought it mite take the heat away from thefront of the motor and ,it seems to have worked it runs cooler, plus its got a better note out the back,,didnt know the shit would fuck my pipes though [8D]

[ALBI]

i used to work for berrnie roberts at carline mufflers @ raymond terrace and he runs a vx dunnydore supersedan and he doesnt run it either ,i asked him why as it would keep it cooler ,his reply used it before and it crystalises the steel "weekens it"
and also retains water and allows rust to form early aswell.

[TheBogyman]

yep, like that alot, nice work bud,,

Looking good Pete, my only observation is that your bars and raisers don't suit the build I reckon Gitzy should have a word in your ear and recommend some alternatives. I personally think flat bars would look heaps better. Not a criticism mate just an observation.

looking good pete, one question, does the bike seem to increase in ride height and "hop" when hard on the gas out of corners?

you have some serious amounts of swingarm angle going on there, just wondering if it affects your handling?

You're not looking at the top of his banana arm are you Joe?

The angle doesn't look much different to the Triumph or Thunderace in the pics.

[Gitzy]

Bars and risers look heaps better Pete.. whats with your helmet? is that a cover? looks cool.

[RevHead]

there called helmet skins got em on ebay $20

[crazymofo]

nah i was looking at the line between the swingarm axle and the rear wheel axle... but if pete says its fine, thats all that matters. for my eyes it looks like a lot of angle in the 2nd last pic. but that could be the angle of the photo too?

cheers.joe.
