Thanks and no real updates... Work has been taking up a lot of my time. So whatever time is available. I do a lot of searching for parts that I can potentially use.
I really need/want to get this right the first time. So I do not have to go back and make major changes. I did ended up buying new hubs. Instead of modifying the ones that came with the rims or making my own. Got in some rear shocks springs, brake calipers, front radial master cylinder, steel braided galfer lines and double bubble windscreen. Some reason I don't know why. I am most proud of the windscreen. Plus I've been doing work on 1 of my other minis. To get it ready for some track time. Then I accidentally bought another project which I have to build. Bought a Honda nsr50 for a fellow racer. And well the chassis is still sitting in my garage for over a year. So I have to build this thing too. I'm pretty sure the guy whelched on the deal... But here's some photos. |

So the nsr50 I'm gonna build cause I'm stuck with it. Just because I was trying to help a follow racer out. Plus some pics of other parts.
I did settle on the Daytona 675 rear shock. Now I gotta find a spring with the rate I think will be good. |

still alive! lol
Sooooo where to begin..
Still not finished still have things to change. Its practically ready though but there are things. I feel that need to be changed for the better. I fell into a little bit of a slump. So when this happens, I move from 1 project to the next. Started a couple more and went back to some old ones. This particular project I had high hopes for. I will not be able to build using the motor I bought for it. So im bummed out on this. So I iknda been striking out lately.  This was another scooter conversion. |

Rear tire hugger fully bolted on. I went with a Daytona 675 rear shock and a trx 250/450 shock spring. I want to get a stiffer rear shock spring. Even though the trx spring is lighter in weight. Still not stiff enough so I have to find a stiffer light spring.
Oh plus had the swingarm shortened and rewelded. |

Then I came across this one cheap.
I had the bright idea to put an horizontal 180cc 4v motor in it. But leave it in a way I could convert it back into a scooter. Im still on the fence about this one. I originally bought as a spare for parts. Or make it street worthy but im conflicted...

I have a Ninja 600 front end, swing arm and rear wheel that would look right at home on that.
