Better photos to come at later stage...but you get the idea, motor trans etc all fit as the should. Nothing is bolted in hard, just test fitting for now.

Awesome Mate, being watching this thread to see progress. Bikes looking great, sits nicely and looks fleshed out with the motor resting in the frame.
All the work will be worth it come summer.
Just makes me want to get another bike...................
Cheers mate.
It's coming along, just the nickel & dime stuff left to do as they would say in America. Only thing is by the time parts get to nz, they don't cost nickels:)
I'm still machining up kits of little parts to make it all function, then I'll delve into the scary world of electricity...

Its been a while since I last posted on this project. The harley kind of got boxed into a corner in the garage, where it was "just to hard" to get too.
Well it felt like an archeology dig...but I rediscovered it a few weeks ago like an ancient fossil! I stepped back to try work out what it was, then realised it was my harley project:D. After admiring its bone structure, I managed to put about 20 hours of machine time into it and get it to this stage.

Inspired by this, my eBay account just got another thrashing and I've ordered the remainder of the parts needed to finish it (minus the carburetor, which I hope pickup cheaper secondhand in NZ???)

Looking good @kimjon.
S+S super performance for the carby?

Just a 1340cc evolution motor. It's been totally rebuilt with new everything inside. Basically stock, but with some mild head/cam work done.
I didn't want too much motor, as its not intended to be a race bike. I'd buy a Yamaha R1 if I wanted something uber fast.

Black is the new chrome, well it is when it comes to exhaust pipes:thumbsup:
It was an agonizing decision choosing a set of pipes. 2 into 1 was my first choice, but the only way i could make those work on my frame was to have them sitting way out to clear the oil tank...it wouldn't have looked right like that.

They're just sitting there in this photo as a mock up at the moment, but it won't take much to make then permanently attached. I think it will look the business once all the black and chrome balance each other out.

This is gonna be so mean.. following with great interest!!

Wow, that looks like it is going to be LOUD!
I'm not a motor bike rider, but this is enspiring. Bloody impressive.
