Nice.

You shold relocate your front turns while the shits off the bike.

Yeah, I'm going to, although I need to borrow/buy an angle grinder, for the rear reflector also.

Stock headlight might not even go back on, in which case I won't have any front signals, but I'll chop brackets anyway just in case I ever want to use it again.

[Stephen]

Nice. Going for the oval-ish headlight?

[Grey]

Yeah, something like that.

What I really wanted was a "Gatling Gun" HID headlight from an F50 Q45, but apparently the power draw would be so severe that I'd need an upgraded or second battery, and I don't want to fox with that.

[Stephen]

Nice. I'm torn headlight wise. You on TotalRuckus?

Yep, I'm on as "Hashiriya"


PROGRESS! Engine is off (visible in background, along with parts pile), after much fiddling with hoses and cables. Maybe I'll order a new shock while I'm at this point? I'm not sure which one gives the lowest stance.

Bike is sitting on a Watanabe F8. ^_^






Garage looks like hell. I can't wait until Spring when I can redo the whole thing.

[Stephen]

I think the daytona is solid and cheap, but im not sure if adjustablity is dampening or ride height..


Also, Other people can post too, this is not just a stephen and Grey Build thread.

Any Honda Powersports dealer, in theory.


Vendors for wheels/parts:

Battlescooter Store

Bowls LA

Rucksters

Password JDM

Ruckus Life

Memoryfab used to be great, but their site is under construction and thus useless. I'm sure they'll be equally great when they return.


And just because:

White low seat frame and pegs on!

[Grey]

Nice!

Was the seat frame a pain?


I just got my PWJDM pegs and anti-flex kit in the mail late last week. I need to get my shit together and finish with all these installs.

No, once i came to terms with the fact that one bolt just wasnt happening

I tried breifly to put the frame brace on, but the floorboard piece was being stubborn and i was running out of time. So itll wait, and ill do the chinbone at the same time.


And pegs are heaven sent. Athough i want to try forward pegs too.

Get that stuff done!
