fuck yeah looking good chase
this is looking cool good work Steve
Looking good mate
Cheers fellas, I'm pretty happy with hows it's gone in.
yeah that's a sick swinger.
hey man sweet build you got goin!
what was the width at the swingarm pivot point as one of those arms would look sweet on my THING trike build!
does the vfr hub fit in the end do you know?
thanks!
Sorry mate, I'd measure it for you but it's already been replaced with the adapted pivot. As far as I know the VFR doesn't fit, the swinger can take Ducati or Triumph wheels.
looks shite mate and it looks dangerous ,tell you wat mate im feeling generous ill give you my swinger as a swap so you wont be left with out one !!!!!and ill mount it in mine ,opps i meen shed !!
probably not, to put the 1098s rear wheel/eccentric etc into my vfr800, it need a 1.5mm sleeve, i.e. the duke stuff is smaller than the vfr, so the larger VFR stuff won't fit into the duke arm.Quote:

Got it from Germany, its second hand but new cost 250 euro delivered. Brand new ones are about $700 which is insane.
i know. they're fucking redic price. I think i'll still have to save up and get one cause they look mint... and different from most else.
Don't forget the fairing for it, I couldn't find a 2nd hand one so had to order new.
And we'll know where you got the inspiration from :pQuote:

I'd be more concerned with your "bits" being at the powdercoaters without you ! Frame looks nice thought.
haha.. yeah just getting a new coat of "married blue" applied ;)Quote:

Of course I'll call ya - always promise to call my bitches :eek:
Did you check the Buell one I posted in ya thread?
Note to self... When taking things apart it is not ok to just put it all in a bucket to sort later...
But managed to get a few things together and pretty happy with how it's coming together.
