Lower

I tend to agree, if it never had a fork brace it would be alot better, I wonder if you could do without it anyone tried it??

 

[degsey]

Option 2 any better

 

[darkhorse]

Just make one, minimal and fixed to the top of the brace, or better still, under it

I think you would have all sorts of problems if you did without some type of fork brace but not tried it myself though.

Perhaps an integrated mudguard and brace or perhaps with a light built in.

Well chaps I've started on the front fender, basically I've reduced the width by a couple of inches then cut a square ish hole in it for it to slot up to the lower part of the fork brace. As you can see I've made a clamp to keep it all in the right place while I weld it up. I will round the front and the rear of it when the welding is done .











The silencers have arrived so its time to think about getting them positioned.

That's all for now

Front fender finished, small is best...................I would appreciate your views

 

[darkhorse]

Thanks for the button heads Brian

Made a bracket for the ignition switch , it's only roughed out at the minute

 

[degsey]

Rear light on





Battery box on and I just mocked up the silencer to see how much you could see it





That's enough for today

 

[DrFarkoff]

Ehm what happens to battery box when you kick up the centre stand??

 

[degsey]

When I've put the exhausts on the centre stand is coming off

The tyres change the whole look of the bike.

For the better Brian ??

For the better Brian ??

I'd say yes.

By the way could the ignition not go in the headlight pivot?

 

[degsey]

That did cross my mind however I may fit indicators at a later date and I will attached them to that location. I also considered just having a toggle switch in the headlight bowl but I decided no.

Taking the paint off the fork legs, much better fits in with the old look
