I need to make my rearsets ALOT higher

 

I remounted the oil cooler. Made an aluminum bracket, drilled and tapped 2 holes in the engine block, and mounted that bitch up.

 

Truckinduc you got to stop!

Your making me feel terrable for riding a stock superhawk

Keep up the modding!

 

I found some subframe material in the oddest of places, Tractor supply. They only carry one size, and its the size i need.

 

tractor supply comes through for a score!!! great!

 

ya my ex girlfriend and I were there and i saw it out of the corner of my eye. I went over to check it out and the tubing happened to be what I need. Everywhere online wants like 25 bucks shipping.

 

I started routing my plumbing from the water pump. Im using 1 inch 1/8th wall aluminum tubing.

 

got some 16 gauge 3003 series alloy aluminum sheet to build my gastank and airbox out of today.

 

you look a lot younger that I expected, even for a 19 yr old.

 

ya well they tell me im special

 

Hell fella, you should be a horse jockey. Think of the weight advantage!

 

Ive cut out my aluminum base plates that will mount to the carbs for the airbox.

Got my rearsets drilled and on the bike supporting weight, they are trick.

Built another wooden subframe, this one holds my weight. I built a wooden seat and positioned it how i wanted now that I have the bars and rearsets on.

Seat height is 33 inches.

 

pics! :P

Getting closer and closer.

 

Introducing the flinstones "Bobbermobile"



I did this to make sure the seat i planned will be comfortable. AND IT IS

rearset progress





oil cooler all comfy in its new position.




"I like you peoples" what you think?

 

Nice project keep them pics coming

looking good!

That seat isn't nearly as sloped forward as it seemed like it would be.

 

I'd probably find an old ironing board cover and cut a piece out for the seat, it'd give you a little padding and cover the wood for a better look...

 

U know... I'm pretty sure that's just a mock-up... He was talking about doing it in carbon fiber I think?

But I could be wrong...

 

old man's weird sense of humor...

 

finished welding up and reinforcing my case

 

so what you people think?

 

Nice work, that'll save you some jack

Not to mention it looks damned near bullet proof... It's not going to break there again for sure... Beutiful welds...

 

it's been said before and i'll repeat it.

the boy's got talent.

keep it up!!!

 

thanks people.

I just welded up the other side too.

 

the kids got skillz. i've only got 2 years on you but I think the mock up of the seat would be about the only thing on this project I coulda done.

 

tubing that will soon be a beautiful subframe.

 

 

 

new pistons?



nope just a little work
